Reporters sue over arrests during LA homeless encampment protest
Two reporters arrested during protests in Echo Park in Los Angeles in March of 2021 are suing the city of Los Angeles on First Amendment grounds. The reporters were covering a protest over the removal of a homeless camp from the park.
