California officials at the local and federal levels have brought new felony charges against rioters who committed violence in Los Angeles earlier this month in protest of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Trump administration’s hard-line immigration agenda.

LA County District Attorney Nathan Hochman and U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli announced the charges at a Tuesday press conference. Some of the federal and state charges concerned attempted arson of police vehicles and assault of law enforcement officers.
