    CHICAGO — Anti-Israel protesters took to the streets of Chicago for a fourth night on Thursday, the final night of the Democratic National Convention, where Vice Presidential nominee Kamala Harris was scheduled to deliver a historic speech addressing supporters.

    The protesters gathered around 5 p.m. before leaving, led by Chicago Police Chief Larry Snelling and officers.

    Thursday’s march, which passed through Park 578, was farther from the United Center, the stadium hosting the DNC, than previous marches. A large group of riot police positioned themselves between the protesters and the DNC.
