Iraq War Protesters Disrupt Chicago Mass

CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago police have arrested six people who disrupted an Easter Mass by squirting fake blood on themselves to protest the war in Iraq.

Police say the four men and two women stood in Holy Name Cathedral and yelled about their opposition to the war during Cardinal Francis George's homily on Sunday.

Police say the demonstrators also squirted fake blood on parishioners as they were removed from the service by security guards and ushers.

George says everyone should work for peace, but not by interrupting the worship of God.
