Demonstrators now calling for dissipation of the protest as LAPD announced those in the park can stay another 24 hours. Meeting some resistance. #EchoParkRiseUp
Literally one minute after I tweeted this cops fired with a launcher at the skirmish line.
Resident of the encampment: “I live here and I consider tonight a victory.”and asking the group to move back from LAPD slowly.
They just gave the dispersal order again. Been almost a half hour since the first one. #EchoParkRiseUp
They’re now saying 10 minutes to disperse.
It’s been an hour since the first dispersal order, @kevrector corrects me. That’s an unusually long window, at least compared to most LAPD protest windows I’ve seen given.
Back on the ground at Echo Park as police surround the area, they’ve blocked off most roads leading here as well. There’s many more surrounding all of Echo Park Lake #EchoParkRiseUp
Police presence contd.
Protestors and media confronting some of the police here #EchoParkRiseUp
Lots of activists and media gathering in Echo Park this morning following the news that the city (@MitchOFarrell) plans to displace and fence off the community of unhoused people here #EchoParkRiseUp
Damn #EchoParkRiseUp
Numbers have tripled since the action started at 7. A lot will stay for a while to flood the park with signs, some will come back for the night as police will probably try to displace the people of the camp when less activists/media are present #EchoParkRiseUp
