The largely peaceful protests during the "No Kings Day" demonstration in downtown Los Angeles took an intense turn in the afternoon. Police ordered the crowd to disperse at about 4:15 p.m. PDT near Alameda Street and Temple Avenue, according to the Los Angeles Police Department's Central Division.

Many protesters stayed long after the rally was scheduled to end in Kansas City, chanting and banging drums at Mill Creek Park.

Cities large and small across the U.S. saw crowds gather Saturday for planned "No Kings" protests against President Trump.
