Neo-Nazi group plans to return for protest

TOLEDO (AP) -- The neo-Nazi group whose visit last month touched off rioting said it plans to return to protest how the police and the city handled its visit.
Spokesman Bill White said the National Socialist Movement plans to demonstrate downtown Dec. 10.
Rioters looted businesses and threw bricks at police during the Oct. 15 rioting. The unrest lasted about four hours. Police arrested 114 on charges including assault, vandalism and failure to obey police.
The worst violence broke out after the march was called off and rioters turned their anger toward police because they felt officers were protecting the neo-Nazis and did nothing to stop their plan to walk through their neighborhood.
Instead of a march through the northside neighborhood, the neo-Nazis plan to rally this time on the steps of a government building downtown for an hour or two, White said. He said there would be more members of the group than there were for the march.
Fewer than two dozen members showed up for the march, but the group said others were denied access to the area by authorities.
