抗议者在北约峰会会场外面与当局发生冲突,芝加哥警方逮捕了至少45名抗议者。

星期天,数千人参加了反战的抗议活动。抗议基本上是以和平方式进行的,但在星期天傍晚,一些抗议者试图冲破警察部署的警戒线。警戒线是防止抗议者进入50国领导和代表举行会议的滨湖会议中心.

几名抗议者向警察投掷水瓶和其他东西之后,防暴警察对示威群众使用了警棍。警方说,四名警察在冲突中受了轻伤。

星期天早些时候,警方表示拘留了两名男子,他们被指计划制造炸弹,准备在北约峰会期间引爆。

Police in Chicago have arrested at least 45 protesters after clashes with authorities outside the NATO summit. 

Thousands of anti-war protesters took part in the largely peaceful demonstrations Sunday. But late in the afternoon, some of the protesters tried to push through a line of police keeping them from the lakeside convention center where leaders and delegates from 50 countries are meeting. 

Police in riot gear used batons to respond to the demonstrators after several protesters threw bottles and other objects at the officers. Police officials said four officers suffered minor injuries in the clashes. 

Earlier Sunday, police said two men were in custody on charges of planning to make bombs for use during the NATO meetings.
