(53,339 posts)1. It looks like marchers have now encountered an LAPD skirmish line
It's not clear what intersection this is, but the protesters were marching eastward on Hollywoood Bl. They are now chanting, "No justice, no peace!"

(53,339 posts)11. People running...one report says, "They shot something"
Police reportedly threw one person to the ground. Protesters running...now, more firing heard. Rubber bullets? Some saying one person hit.

(8,155 posts)12. Bean bags shot into the crowd. Several people hit.
The stream is essentially useless now. The recorder is going home.

The witness who said it was beanbags also said he wasn't sure about it.

(8,155 posts)14. I definitely heard multiple shots fired.
I don't believe officers fire blanks. It's probably some sort of less than lethal round.
