DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Military helicopters were seen flying in formation around downtown Los Angeles and explosions were reported in the area that were all part of an exercise.

Many people also tweeted that they saw the exercise in Silver Lake.



One helicopter even landed in the middle of Wilshire Boulevard and soldiers were seen rappelling out of the aircrafts onto rooftops.
