WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The Pentagon announced on Monday it was ending its deployment of some 700 active-duty Marines sent to Los Angeles last month to protect federal property and personnel during a spate of protests tied to President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown.
The withdrawal follows last week's decision to remove about half of the 4,000 National Guard troops also sent to Los Angeles.
