CNN host experiences shocking revelation as reporter gets arrested by police while reporting live from Los Angeles riots.

During the Los Angeles riots, a CNN reporter and his team faced a temporary detention and were ushered out of a specific area by the police. They were cautioned that further trespassing would lead to an arrest.

Just after midnight, live coverage of the chaos was briefly interrupted as an anchor Laura Coates could hear someone speaking to police.  

Jason Carroll, a national correspondent from California covering the protests against ICE, was reporting from the scene when he was suddenly approached by law enforcement authorities.

In the midst of the chaos, Coates, the CNN law enforcement and intelligence analyst, paused John Miller to inquire about the situation involving Jason Carroll. He was concerned about what he was witnessing and sought clarification on Jason’s status.

Carroll finally speaks while talking to a member of law enforcement attempting to remove him from the area. 

‘I am being detained. I am being detained, Laura,’ he said to Coates, before turning to the officer and asking: ‘I am not being arrested, correct?’ 

One officer can be heard asking if Carroll heard what another officer told him, which the reporter says he could not hear.

‘We’re letting you go but you can’t come back here, because then if you come back in, you go,’ suggesting he would be arrested if he returned.

Carroll agrees and thanks the officer before telling him to ‘take care.’

Before the reporter can explain what happened, he is stopped by another journalist who describes himself as being from The New York Times. 

‘I’m Chris with the New York Times. We got video of you guys, if you need it later,’ the second reporter said.

Carroll thanks the New York Times employee and then describes what had just happened.   

‘I was called over, and the officer told me to put my hands behind my back,’ he said.

Carroll asked the officer if he was being arrested before being told he was merely detained. 

‘I was walked out of the area. They took down my information,’ he added before his audio is lost.

A few minutes later, Coates reestablishes contact with Carroll and he gets into more detail.

‘They did not put me in zip ties, but they did grab both my hands as I was escorted over to the side,’ he said.

Carroll described what occurred as one of the ‘risks’ that the press takes to cover these stories, though he admitted it was ‘low on that sort of scale.’  

‘It is something that I wasn’t expecting simply because we’ve been out here all day,’ Carroll said. 

He noted that typically, officers usually recognize that ‘the press is there doing a job.’

Carroll then returned to reporting on those who were being arrested for not dispersing from the area.  

The network later reported that other members of Carroll’s crew were also briefly detained and forced to leave the protest zone. 

Two security personnel for CNN were also detained Monday night but were not charged, they said. 

Carroll has been with the network for well over a decade. DailyMail.com has reached out to CNN for comment.

At least 74 people have been arrested in connection with riots of over the weekend with more to come as the chaos continues to rage across the streets of California’s biggest city.

Hundreds of Marines have been mobilized to Los Angeles after Donald Trump sent National Guard troops to quell the immigration protests.

Chaos erupted after protesters clashed with immigration officials across downtown Los Angeles over the weekend, leading to three days of violence and 

Looters targeted businesses across the city amid the demonstrations, which saw cars torched and security forces firing tear gas at rioters.

Despite the National Guard’s presence, the military is set to temporarily deploy about 700 Marines from the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in Twentynine Palms to the city.

It is unclear what grounds the administration used to send the troops, but for now, the Insurrection Act is not expected to be invoked. 

California officials have been slammed for their handling of the riots as an understaffed police department struggles to quell the violence. 

Gov. Gavin Newsom launched a lawsuit against the Trump Administration for unlawfully’ deploying another 2,000 National Guard troops.

Trump told reporters he would support border czar Tom Homan if he arrested the ‘criminal’ governor.

‘I would do it,’ the president said when asked about Newsom daring his administration to arrest him.

‘I like Gavin Newsom; he’s a nice guy, but he’s grossly incompetent, everybody knows it,’ the president added.
