3 cities where agitators attacked police during 'No Kings' protests on Trump's birthday

By Samantha Kamman, Christian Post Reporter

1 person arrested for hitting police in Chicago

Thousands participated in the "No Kings" protest in Chicago on Saturday, as WMAQ-TV reports. Chicago Police Department Superintendent Larry Snelling estimated that about 15,000 people attended the protest, which was monitored by 500 police officers.

At least one person was arrested for striking a police officer, but Snelling said that the officer was not injured, according to WMAQ-TV. 

"The officers did a spectacular job making sure that they kept the protests safe and they kept the city safe nothing got out of control," Snelling said.
