Chicago, IL
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump canceled his Friday night rally at the University of Illinois at Chicago Pavilion due to security concerns as thousands of protesters gathered outside.Inside the arena, an announcement was made that Trump arrived in Chicago and met with law enforcement officials, and that due to protesters "in and out of the arena, tonight's rally will be postponed until another day."




Some Trump backers were forced to move through a gauntlet of protesters, many of whom were shouting at them, calling them "bigots" and singing, "Sha-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, hey, hey, goodbye."







 At one point, a group of supporters and demonstrators nearly exchanged blows. Amid the chaotic scene, some demonstrators peddled T-shirts reading "Donald (Expletive) Trump." One little girl sported an anti-Trump sign with a pun: "We shall overcomb."

Earlier on Friday at a rally in St. Louis, Trump continued to taunt those who interrupt his events while promising that police and security would be "gentle" as they removed them.
"They're allowed to get up and interrupt us horribly and we have to be very, very gentle," Trump said in response to one of nearly a dozen interruptions as he spoke in St. Louis at the regal Peabody Opera House. "They can swing and hit people, but if we hit them back, it's a terrible, terrible thing, right?"
Throughout his St. Louis speech, Trump was deeply critical of the protesters, all of whom appeared to leave the venue largely without incident. Police later said that 31 people were arrested and charged with general peace disturbance, and one person was charged outside the venue with third-degree assault.






The presidential candidate panned the protesters as weak "troublemakers," ordered them to "go home to mommy" or "go home and get a job" because "they contribute nothing.""These are not good people, just so you understand," Trump said. "These are not the people who made our country great. These are the people that are destroying our country."
In Chicago, several protesters were removed from the arena before the rally was canceled. One section appeared to be filled with youths protesting his appearance, a majority of them African-American, Latino, Arab-American and Asian-American.
Before the official who announced the cancellation took the stage, a female protester shouted "f--- Trump" while holding a "No Hate" sign. People in the upper balcony threw debris at her.
As of 6:50 p.m., there had been no arrests or injuries, said Chicago Police Department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi. Interim Superintendent John Escalante is on the scene. The Police Department was notified by university officials that the event would be shut down.
Leading up to the postponed rally, the crowd of protesters grew and police officers, including one on horseback, expanded the area to accommodate their larger numbers.

Nineteen-year-old Radia Mchabcheb said she came from Villa Park to stand against Trump. "There's no support for hateful kinds of speech, especially for presidential candidates," she said.
Protesters chanted "Hey, hey. Ho, ho. Donald Trump has got to go."
A few Trump backers lashed back at demonstrators, shouting, "Build the wall!" a reference to Trump's pledge to build a wall on the Mexican border — and have Mexico pay for it.
While emotions ran high, a phalanx of Chicago police officers worked to keep Trump's fans and foes on opposite sides of Harrison Street.
Thousands turned out to see Trump, while outside the pavilion thousands of demonstrators had gathered.

Trump's visit before Tuesday's presidential primary in Illinois raised concerns on campus, with dozens of UIC faculty and staff signing a petition begun by a student leader asking how security would be handled and who would pay for it. More than 40,000 people signed it.
A 24-hour vigil leading up to Trump's campaign stop and organized by Latino community leaders began late Thursday.
Chicagoan and paramedic Deirdre Fennessy held up a sign with a swastika that replaced the "U" in the Republican presidential front-runner's name.
"Chicagoans don't want him here," Fennessy said.
"We're not paying attention to them," said a Trump supporter from Villa Park who gave his name as "Tony" and said he immigrated from Italy 40 years ago. He praised the hotel magnate's "management skills."
Most people who turned out for Trump were white. Farice Campbell, a 21-year-old African-American man from Chicago, said he came out of curiosity, and to see Trump supporters up close.
"We came to see in real life how this all plays out, and the reasons to support Trump," Campbell said.
With him was 18-year-old Portia Torrens, of Oswego, who is also black.
"This is a huge part of history," she said. "It's good to be a part of it."

A bloodied protester has been filmed being escorted from a Donald Trump rally in St Louis on Friday as demonstrators shut the event down for ten minutes.
The black activist, who gave his name as Anthony Cage, was filmed being escorted into a police van by two St Louis officers with blood across his face and down the front of his sweater.
There had been signs of trouble as early as 8am when people began queuing outside the Peabody Opera House to get tickets, with large groups of pro and anti-Trump fans shouting at one another.
