CHICAGO (AP) — Protesters whose presence at a Donald Trump campaign rally forced the Republican White House front-runner to call off the event are celebrating their success at keeping him from taking the stage.

As Trump supporters walk through the anti-Trump crowd outside the University of Illinois at Chicago Pavilion, many of the protesters are chanting: "We stopped Trump! We stopped Trump!"

Others are shouting: "Racists, go home! Racists, go home!"

Police officers on foot and horseback are working to keep Trump protesters and Trump supporters apart.
