Dozens of protesters have been detained after a weekend of unrest across Los Angeles, as tensions reached a breaking point due to immigration raids in the city.

Law enforcement officials from various agencies took action on Sunday, arresting 41 individuals as demonstrations against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) escalated beyond control.

Out of the nearly 48 arrests, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) was responsible for 21, the California Highway Patrol for 19, and the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department for one.

Newsom arrived in Los Angeles on Sunday evening to meet with state officials and oversee the response to the anti-ICE demonstrations.

ICE said in a Saturday post on X that the agency had arrested 118 illegal immigrants throughout Los Angeles, including five alleged gang members. 

“Why do Governor Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass care more about violent murderers and sex offenders than they do about protecting their own citizens?” Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary for Homeland Security’s public affairs, said in a statement. “These rioters in Los Angeles are fighting to keep rapists, murderers, and other violent criminals loose on Los Angeles streets. Instead of rioting, they should be thanking ICE officers every single day who wake up and make our communities safer.”

Representatives for Bass’ administration did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
