I’ve been monitoring and recording footage of what’s been happening in Los Angeles over the last six hours.

This 15-minute clip takes place between 5 pm PST – 11 pm PST approx. As it gets dark, things become increasingly violent. Rioters clash with police, smashing windows, and injuring officers.

Towards the end, several businesses including Starbucks in downtown Los Angeles get vandalized and looted and it is still ongoing. I strongly believe these protests are not just because of the death of George Floyd but also Americans who were fed up with being locked down for nearly two months.
