L607-ESTADOS UNIDOS PROTESTAS LOS ANGELES
STORY: Demonstrators set Waymo cars on fire during an anti-ICE protest in Los Angeles on Sunday (June 8) afternoon.
Footage showed flames and smoke rising from various vehicles as protesters gathered around and took photographs.
Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) Waymo is the only U.S. firm to run uncrewed robotaxi services carrying paying passengers. The company has more than 1,500 vehicles on the road across San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Austin, Texas, and runs over 250,000 rides a week.
Law enforcement faced off with a few hundred protesters in Paramount and 100 in downtown Los Angeles on Saturday (June 7), with federal officers firing gas canisters in efforts to disperse crowds, according to Reuters witnesses.
Authorities in Los Angeles arrested about 30 people on Saturday, including three on suspicion of assaulting an officer. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office said three deputies sustained minor injuries.
California National Guard troops arrived in Los Angeles on Sunday to quell demonstrations over President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement, as the state's Democratic governor called their deployment unlawful.
The National Guard began deploying as demonstrations over federal immigration raids continued for a third day in Los Angeles, culminating in confrontations between protesters and police.
