“The violent clash between police and protesters after last weeks immigration rally continued to reverberate with activists announcing plans to march again next month and the police chief replacing a top department official.

Rally organizers hope the planned June 24 march will refocus attention on immigration reform and exceed the crowd of about 25,000 who attended the May 1 demonstration that ended with riot police using batons and rubber bullets to drive protesters and journalists out of MacArthur Park.”
