Chicago crews installed additional security fences outside the Democratic National Convention after demonstrators breached an outer perimeter fence. About a dozen workers installed a third row of fencing stretching east on Washington Boulevard. The new row of fencing is between two existing rows that had already been in place. This added security measure was implemented after a group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators, protesting US support for Israel in its war against Hamas, breached a security fence near the United Center the day before. Further protests are expected throughout the four-day convention.
