The escalating violence and vandalism have significantly overshadowed the otherwise peaceful protests against increased arrests by U.S. immigration authorities, the report added.
The demonstration began on Friday following intensified raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), authorized under the Trump administration.
Responding to the unrest, President Trump took the extraordinary measure of deploying federal troops to Los Angeles, despite objections from California's governor. Mayor Karen Bass imposed a curfew from 8 PM to 6 AM (0300 to 1300 GMT), limiting access within a designated area to residents, emergency services, and journalists.
Protests against heightened immigration enforcement have spread nationwide, with major demonstrations occurring in New York, Atlanta, Chicago, San Francisco, and Austin.
In Brookhaven, a suburb of Atlanta, demonstrators waved American and Mexican flags, expressing anger against ICE operations.
As of Tuesday evening, police arrested at least 25 individuals for violating curfew restrictions in Los Angeles. Over recent days, LAPD reported that more than 500 arrests have been made and at least 23 businesses looted overnight Monday alone, the report added.
