By late morning it was clear, June 6 was no ordinary Friday in LA. Federal agents arrested people in and around downtown Los Angeles. Some day laborers near a Home Depot in Westlake, others working in the Fashion District at Ambience apparel.

At the same time, the Trump administration has directed immigration officers to pause arrests at farms, restaurants and hotels, after Trump expressed alarm about the impact aggressive enforcement is having on those industries, according to a U.S. official familiar with the matter who spoke only on condition of anonymity.

Here is what happened on each day the protests against immigration detention operations in the Los Angeles area.

The power of the US military will be sharply on display this weekend – on two different coasts and in two very different ways.

A few hundred people in Market Square marched through downtown Knoxville to protest ICE and Trump's use of military at Los Angeles protests.

The latest arrests suggest tensions are increasing ahead of the weekend, when more demonstrations are planned.

In the days before protests erupted in Los Angeles, the Trump administration stepped up its efforts to detain migrants — taking into custody those who arrived for routine check-ins while also conducting workplace raids that have sent waves of fear across Southern California and beyond.

Protests over President Trump's immigration enforcement raids and his mobilization of the Marines and National Guard in Los Angeles have spread to other major U.S. cities.
