BBC Breakfast viewers were caught off guard on Sunday morning when the usual flow of the show was suddenly brought to a halt by presenter Roger Johnson. The reason? Shocking scenes are unfolding live from Los Angeles, where violent protests had broken out overnight in response to a fresh wave of immigration raids.
Roger cut into the broadcast and quickly handed over to BBC correspondent Regan Morris, who was on the ground in LA, reporting from the heart of the unrest. The dramatic switch in tone came as large crowds had taken to the streets in Paramount, a neighborhood gripped by fear and tension after aggressive new deportation measures had been rolled out under Donald Trump’s administration, reported the Express.
