LAPD Urges Avoiding USC's University Park Campus Amid Disruption

College students protest on University of Michigan campus

The Los Angeles Police Department issued a Citywide Tactical Alert on Saturday in the area of the University Park Campus at USC. The alert was prompted by a disruption at the center of UPC, leading to the LAPD urging people to avoid the University Park Campus until further notice. As of 7:30 p.m., no arrests or injuries had been reported in connection with the incident.

Prior to the alert, USC took precautionary measures by closing its UPC campus to everyone except residents as tensions began to rise. The university announced that due to a disturbance, the University Park Campus was temporarily closed, limiting access to only residents.

It remains unclear why the citywide tactical alert was issued and what specific events transpired to prompt such action. The situation at the University Park Campus is being closely monitored by law enforcement officials and university authorities to ensure the safety and security of the campus community.
