ANAHEIM, Calif. (KABC) — Hundreds of mostly peaceful demonstrators on Sunday took to the Anaheim streets again to protest two recent fatal police shootings. At one point, the large crowd made its way toward the Disneyland entrance, but police were able to turn the crowd away.

Protesters dressed in white started out at the Anaheim Police Department headquarters, where police officers were present around the building as well as on the roof.

The crowd marched down Harbor Boulevard toward Disneyland around 2 p.m. and were met by police in riot gear who prevented them from reaching the resort entrance.

Police on horseback flanked the crowd as they marched down the road. Some demonstrators could be heard chanting, “Whose streets? Our streets.”
