Chaos ensued after organizers announced the rally was canceled shortly after 6:30 p.m. at the UIC Pavillion. Police ejected at least a half dozen anti-Trump demonstrators, including one man who snuck on stage and approached the podium.
Chants of "Trump" and "Bernie" alike filled the arena as police dispersed the masses. Joe Fritz, 20, who came to hear Trump speak, said a woman punched him as he stood in a crowd of protesters outside the arena after the rally was canceled. Fritz said the woman landed a glancing blow to his chin after he questioned her for yelling epithets toward cops standing nearby and about Trump. Fritz said the woman was with a girl who was about 10.
