LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Marines that deployed to Los Angeles on orders from President Donald Trump have not yet been called to respond to the city’s immigration protests and are there only to protect federal property, the Marine Corps commandant said Tuesday.

The protests began Friday after Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents carried out coordinated raids across Los Angeles, detaining dozens of workers at warehouses and other worksites. The arrests sparked immediate backlash, with demonstrators converging outside federal buildings, blocking freeways, and in some cases clashing with police.
