As soon as the sun went down, police moved in to make mass arrests.
LAPD officers kettled a large group of rioters in downtown Los Angeles on Monday night and told them they are all under arrest.
Kettling is a crowd control tactic used by law enforcement.
“The police just said we’re all under arrest!” a reporter said as he panned around to the large group of rioters and reporters being kettled.
