Lincoln Heights, Ohio residents form armed patrol after rally
Residents of Lincoln Heights, Ohio, formed an armed patrol group after a neo-Nazi rally in February. They criticized local police for not making arrests during the demonstration, which raised safety concerns in the community. The Lincoln Heights Safety and Watch Program now includes about 70 volunteers who patrol the town and monitor bus stops.
