The Los Angeles Police Department released a statement saying its officers were not involved in any immigration enforcement operations. Chief Jim McDonnell acknowledged the anxiety the actions cause.

“While the LAPD will continue to have a visible presence in all our communities to ensure public safety, we will not assist or participate in any sort of mass deportations, nor will the LAPD try to determine an individual’s immigration status,” he said.
