The full story

Community advocates, rapid response groups, and residents gathered outside Adventist Health White Memorial Hospital in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles after federal immigration agents brought someone in their custody to the facility's emergency department. The demonstration sparked a tense standoff as protesters confronted agents blocking the hospital's ambulance bay. According to rapid response networks and media reports, federal agents detained at least two people during the demonstrations. The protest drew sharp criticism from city leaders, including Mayor Karen Bass and Mayor-Elect Nithya Raman, who condemned the enforcement activity around a medical facility and called for federal agents to halt operations near health care centers.
