U.S. Marines detained a man who had walked onto the property of a federal building in Los Angeles and did not immediately hear their commands to stop, marking the first time federal troops have detained a civilian since they were deployed to the city.
Two hundred Marines will guard federal buildings in the Los Angeles area, freeing up more National Guard soldiers to back up federal agents arresting undocumented immigrants, the commander of military troops sent to the city said Friday.
