Chicago locals fight off protesters and shut down BLM rally to prevent looting
By Lee BrownAugust 12, 2020

A largely black group of Chicago residents infuriated by looters blighting the city pushed back against a Black Lives Matter protest.

As access was again blocked to downtown overnight to stop more marauding — with bridges raised and expressway ramps closed — protesters turned to the South Side, where a man allegedly started a shootout with cops in an arrest that sparked chaos.

The Englewood locals resisted, kicking out the protesters from BLM and groups campaigning to defund the police, according to Fox 32.

“If you ain’t from Englewood, get the f–k out of here,” longtime local resident Darryl Smith shouted at protesters during tense confrontations.
