Anti-Trump protest updates: Demonstrators march in Hollywood

Nov. 13, 2016, 12:55 p.m.

Marchers again took to the streets Sunday to protest the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States. Local TV coverage showed hundreds gathering in Hollywood in front of the CNN building.
On Saturday, thousands of marchers took to the streets of L.A. It marked the fifth day of demonstrations in cities nationwide over Trump, a Republican who upended conventional political wisdom by defeating Democrat Hillary Clinton on Tuesday. Trump's attacks on people who are in this country illegally and his comments about women, among other things, brought many of the protesters to the streets.

Police ordered a lingering group of anti-Donald Trump protesters to disperse on Friday night after an hours-long demonstration through downtown Los Angeles that ended where it started, at City Hall.
Dozens of officers, wearing ballistic helmets and holding up batons, lined up around the group, which was chanting, "Right to assemble!" Minutes later, shortly before midnight, police ordered everyone to go home.
"I'm not leaving," said 19-year-old Kimberly Solano, noting that she was prepared to get arrested. "Whatever happens, happens."
Most protesters left voluntarily, but a dozen or so — some holding their hands in the air while chanting, "Peaceful protest" — were pushed up Temple Street as officers moved in.
As of shortly after midnight on Sunday, police hadn't arrested anyone there.
"It's just a few stragglers," said LAPD Officer Wendy Reyes, noting that most people had left. "We're just monitoring."
It remained unclear early Sunday morning whether a handful of people detained earlier in the night during the marches remained under arrest.
