Wrap up of Day 2 of Ferguson Protests in Los Angeles
Jason Kandel and Michael Larkin of NBC Southern California have a great deal of media from yesterday:
The march followed protests Monday night in cities across the country. In Ferguson overnight, police made more than 80 arrests.
Police Chief Charlie Beck said earlier Tuesday that only three people were arrested in protests across LA on Monday.
They have more information about the presence of weapons among the protesters.

CBS News gives a rundown of protests across the nation:
Protesters flooded the U.S. 101 freeway Tuesday night, carrying barricades that they laid across lanes and bringing traffic to a halt.
Within a few minutes, Highway Patrol and LAPD officers chased the few dozen protesters off the freeway and corralled them on an overpass, where one of the barricades was thrown on to the freeway below.
Imagine I’ll have another report for tomorrow.
