After Chicago anti-Trump success, protesters try again

CHICAGO (AP) — College students, civil rights activists and other opponents of Donald Trump's Republican presidential candidacy tried again to disrupt his events on Saturday after shutting down his rally a day earlier in Chicago.

Trump ran into a vibrant community of student activists and civil- and immigrant-rights campaigners that has experience in organizing mass demonstrations and was energized by recent scandals over Chicago police shootings of young black men.

NEW TACTICS

Besides mobilizing a big crowd, the Chicago protesters used some new tactics.

[...] organizers like Robledo and Rojas said it was put together by student organizations on campus — via Facebook — with no affiliation to any political groups.

A man tried to breach the security buffer at his event in Dayton, leading Secret Service agents to briefly rush the stage to surround him, but Trump finished his speech without apparent incident.
