Violent Clashes at Pro-Palestinian Protest Outside LA Synagogue Leave 15 Injured
Jun 24, 2024, 03:01 AM
Pro-Palestinian activists held a protest outside the Adas Torah Synagogue in the Pico-Robertson neighborhood of Los Angeles, an Orthodox Jewish enclave. The protest, which took place on Sunday, June 23, 2024, turned violent with demonstrators blocking the synagogue entrance and attacking Jewish residents. A journalist, Cam Higby, was bear sprayed by a masked protester while filming the event. The crowd was heard chanting 'intifada.' The clashes involved the use of bear spray and pepper spray, with several incidents of violence reported and 15 injured. The Los Angeles Police Department was criticized for allegedly allowing the protesters to occupy the area and failing to protect the Jewish community. The incident has sparked widespread condemnation from political leaders, including California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who called for additional patrols and condemned the antisemitic violence.
