    Last night, I thought I would be safe standing off to the side with the TV news teams and vans, away from all the protesters. Nope. The feds started firing "less-lethal" rounds at us as they dispersed the crowd, and we all ran. I got hit with multiple pepper balls. @LATACO

    What do actors Shia LaBeouf, Pete Davidson, Benicio Del Toro and Jon Bernthal all have in common? They all seem to really love LAPD Newton Division, an infamous South LA LAPD division that activist refer to as "shooting newton" because of all the police shootings there.
