Demonstrations against Trump over the weekend

South Bend and Indianapolis are among the Indiana cities where anti-Donald Trump protests took place on Saturday night.  WANE-TV reports about 150 people protested in Fort Wayne on Sunday afternoon in front of the courthouse.

NEW YORK (AP) – Throngs of people supporting immigrant rights are marching in Manhattan to protest against Donald Trump’s presidential win.

Demonstrators are holding signs in English and Spanish, saying things like “Hate won’t make us great.” They’re chanting, “We are here to stay.”

Organizers say they’re speaking out against Trump’s support of deportation and other measures.

Other protests are expected Sunday in San Francisco, Philadelphia, Chicago, Denver and other cities. They’re following days of demonstrations across the country.

Mostly, the demonstrations were peaceful. However, in Portland, Oregon, a man was shot and wounded Saturday morning during a confrontation. Police arrested two teenagers.

Los Angeles police arrested five people downtown during an anti-Trump protest that wound down early Sunday. An estimated 8,000 had marched.
