CHICAGO — Donald Trump, the GOP presidential front-runner, postponed his rally Friday night over security concerns after protesters and supporters clashed at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Chaos ensued after organizers announced the rally was canceled shortly after 6:30 p.m. at the UIC Pavillion. Police ejected at least a half dozen anti-Trump demonstrators, including one man who snuck on stage and approached the podium.

Chants of "Trump" and "Bernie" alike filled the arena as police dispersed the masses.

Joe Fritz, 20, who came to hear Trump speak, said a woman punched him as he stood in a crowd of protesters outside the arena after the rally was canceled.

Fritz said the woman landed a glancing blow to his chin after he questioned her for yelling epithets toward cops standing nearby and about Trump. Fritz said the woman was with a girl who was about 10.

"I told her, 'What kind of example are you setting?'" Fritz said.

Fritz said he and his friend were then surrounded by other anti-Trump protesters who screamed at them before police pulled them out of the crowd.

Still, the scuffles were brief, and some protesters said the security concerns were overstated.
