The Los Angeles Dodgers say they blocked federal agents from entering their stadium on Thursday, as protests against immigration enforcement continue in the city.
In a post on social media, the baseball team said "ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots", and were subsequently turned away.
Los Angeles is among the cities where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have ramped up raids to find and deport undocumented migrants.
ICE responded to the Dodgers statement on X: "False. We were never there."
The Department of Homeland Security too issued a statement saying the agents' presence at the stadium "had nothing to do with the Dodgers".
