LAPD said law enforcement arrested 38 people following the "No Kings" protests in downtown Saturday afternoon.
Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in nearly 2,000 cities and towns this weekend.
In Los Angeles, 38 people were arrested downtown on Saturday night, police said Sunday. In Huntington Beach, police arrested a convicted felon they said had a loaded handgun.
"No Kings," a nationwide series of protests scheduled for Saturday, was planned as a counter to the military parade taking place in Washington D.C. on the same day. That parade is being held in honor of the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary and, coincidentally, Mr. Trump's 79th birthday.
The American Civil Liberties Union said over 5 million people participated in protests against the Trump administration on June 14.
Three dozen protesters were arrested Saturday night in Denver on investigation of charges ranging from blocking streets to resisting arrest, according to the police department.
The “No Kings” rallies were organized in nearly 2,000 locations nationwide, including cities, towns, and community spaces.
