UCLA Chancellor Gene Block says it was a 'mistake' to allow LAPD to use the stadium parking lot as a staging area during George Floyd protests.
Los Angeles officials said they will look to cut up to $150 million from the police budget as part of a wider effort to reinvest more dollars into the local black community.New charges against former Minneapolis police officers detail George Floyd’s last momentsThe LAPD said in a statement late Wednesday that it created a command post in the stadium parking lot on Sunday in preparation for planned demonstrations in Westwood the following day.
The department said that by Monday evening a surge in curfew violation arrests required additional space for processing, and it “identified the stadium as a location for a field jail, to process arrestees for immediate release.”The statement added: “In retrospect it was an unfortunate decision to establish this site [for] processing arrestees ... given the stadium’s namesake of Jackie Robinson, who broke Major League Baseball’s color barrier as the first African American baseball player.
