Luna reinforced his position that immigration enforcement is not part of the sheriff’s department’s jurisdiction. “I can assure people that we are not going to participate in (ICE) sweeps,” Luna said during an interview with ABC 7 on Thursday.

Amid the recent crackdown on immigration under the Trump administration, Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna assured the county's residents that his department's policies on immigration enforcement have not changed.

For the second straight week demonstrators gathered in downtown Los Angeles police to protest the immigration policies recently instated by President Donald Trump. The Los Angeles Police Department said protesters had entered La Plaza en El Pueblo and urged other members of the public to use caution in the area as the "non-permitted" demonstration continued.

The victim, a 17-year-old boy, is in critical condition after Friday's stabbing. Hundreds of students have been walking out of class to join the protests.
