The Daunte Wright vigil in LA has now turned into a march. LAPD now bordering both sides.

A crowd of about 200 have now shut down the intersection of Cahuenga and Hollywood

Chants of "ACAB"

LAPD still trailing as protesters continue moving east down Hollywood Blvd

"You guys are a waste of space. Fuck you guys."

Protesters chanting "Cops and Klan go hand in hand" followed by "Say his name" while making their way back to Daunte Wright's vigil.

Protesters have made it back to Daunte Wright's vigil at Sunset and Vine after marching a huge loop around Hollywood. Police made their presence known, but no arrests were made.

Police are getting ready to move in.

Dispersal order given

This is the response to what is now about 15 protesters.

Approximately 50 police cars now moving out.

From earlier in the night... a group of people on motorcycles did burnouts to show their support for protesters

LAPD were intent on intimidation before the candlelight vigil even got started. These were the 3 corners at Sunset and Vine as people gathered to light candles and sing songs. An additional 20+ police were hiding behind the Chase bank where the vigil took place. #DaunteWright

LAPD wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars tonight to protect the city of LA... from this 👇

...and this 👇

“The money that is being wasted on having all of these cops here right now can go... to house the unhoused... mental health... education... counselors in schools... transportation... clean water...it can go to so many things that would help our community.”

“I want to talk specifically about Daunte Wright, but first/I have to address the fact that there are all of these cops standing here watching us. The waste of money/the waste of OUR money/while we are/here peacefully trying to mourn one of our brothers is just sickening.”

“How many of you would/like to take your kids to school/[tell them you] love them & ‘goodnight’. Daunte will never get to do that again, along w 100s of other[s]/they’ll never get to do that again while you get to go home & beat your wife and kids/you fucking pigs. Monsters.”
