The New York and Los Angeles police departments and other law enforcement agencies nationwide are taking steps to prepare for possible protests and disruptions if former President Donald Trump is indicted.
Outside the Manhattan courthouse where Trump would appear if he is indicted by a grand jury for a hush money payment to a porn star, the NYPD on Monday morning put in a place a steel crowd control fence, and a heightened law enforcement presence since the weekend has been seen at Trump Tower.
In Los Angeles, the LAPD and federal authorities are preparing for a protest Tuesday evening by various groups supporting the former president outside the federal building in Westwood.
