Several of the protestors chained themselves to the doors of the Chase Bank on Figueroa Street - since the bank has reportedly invested in more fossil fuel projects than any other company.
A nationwide climate change protest prompted a large law enforcement presence in Downtown Los Angeles Wednesday, after protestors were asked to leave on several instances but failed to do so.
The group, compiled of scientists and supporters, then headed towards Downtown Los Angeles, where they gathered outside of Chase Bank, primarily because the company has reportedly invested in more fossil fuel projects than any other company worldwide. With Sky9 overhead, a large police presence could be seen in the area, as they set up a skirmish line to prevent protestors from further gathering. Several of the protestors were holding signs, some of which read"Chase fuels the crisis" and"Chase funds climate destruction."
