City and state officials say they are prepared for one of the largest protests in Seattle since President Donald Trump began his second term.

In a joint press conference Friday morning, city, state, and county leaders called on protesters to remain peaceful during protests.

There were confrontations in several cities, and downtown Los Angeles was under curfew for a second night. Protests in other cities, including New York, ended peacefully.

According to the SDOT camera, a person on a motorcycle with a flaming torch helped set a box on fire which was then rushed to the entrance of the building.

Hundreds boarded the 10:25 a.m. ferry from Bainbridge Island to Seattle on Saturday morning to demonstrate — one of many "No Kings" protests held Saturday.
