In a striking incident captured live on television, CNN national correspondent Jason Carroll was briefly detained by Los Angeles police department (LAPD) officers while covering ongoing protests in the city. The event, which unfolded on Monday, June 9, has sparked renewed discussions about the challenges and risks faced by journalists reporting from the front lines of civil unrest.

Who is Jason Caroll

Carroll, a seasoned journalist with extensive experience covering major breaking news events, was reporting on protests focused on immigration enforcement when he was approached by police. Footage from the broadcast showed Carroll, with his hands behind his back, explaining his role to officers. Speaking to CNN shortly after the incident, Carroll clarified that he was detained, not arrested, and that his hands were not tied with zip ties, though he was escorted out of the area.“I was walking over to the officer, tried to explain who I was, identified who I was with,” Carroll recounted. He said, “I’d like you to turn around.’ I turned around, I put my hands behind my back. They did not put me in zip ties, but they did grab both my hands as I was escorted over to the side,” they said, “you are being detained while we lead you out of this area, you are not allowed in this area.”

What happened so far

The incident caused a momentary disruption in the live broadcast, with CNN host Laura Coates expressing concern and seeking immediate clarification on Carroll’s situation. The LAPD has not yet provided an official statement regarding the specific circumstances of Carroll’s brief detention, though law enforcement officials often cite difficulties in distinguishing between legitimate journalists and other individuals in chaotic protest environments.This incident comes amidst heightened tensions in Los Angeles, where protests have been ongoing for several days following intensified federal immigration enforcement actions. The demonstrations have, at times, seen clashes between protesters and law enforcement, with reports of rubber bullets and tear gas being deployed. Journalists, including an Australian reporter from 9News, have reportedly sustained injuries while covering these events.Carroll is not the first member of the press to get caught between police and protesters. On Sunday, Lauren Tomasi, the US correspondent for Australia’s 9News, appeared to be shot by a rubber bullet while reporting on the immigration protests. Nick Stern, a British news photographer, reportedly needed emergency surgery over the weekend after sustaining a leg wound during the clashes.
