Federal authorities arrest 18 for alleged drug distribution around Los Angeles park

Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents alongside other law enforcement officers work the scene near MacArthur Park after federal authorities made arrests on charges related to selling illicit drugs on Wednesday, May 6, 2026, in Los Angeles.

The area, called MacArthur Park, is a densely populated immigrant neighborhood west of downtown LA where federal immigration authorities and the National Guard made a brief show of force last summer.
