View of a row of police in helmets forming a line in front of a LA County Sheriff's Department bus parked on a city street at night. Cars drive by the police, who are looking all around them. On the far side of the street, behind the bus, are crowds of people, many carrying protest signs. A large banner hangs from the front of the Fifth Estate coffee shop and is painted with large letters that read "END POLICE BRUTALITY". Several people can be seen standing atop the coffee shop.
