On March 11, 2016, a group of protesters infiltrated a Donald Trump presidential campaign rally in Chicago, Illinois, to protest to his incendiary rhetoric. The protest turned violent and led to a brawl between the protesters and the rally attendees.[3] Two police officers and at least two civilians were injured during the protests. Five people were arrested, of which one was a CBS reporter who was covering Trump's campaign.[1]
