DAYTON – Less than a dozen members of the Honorable Sacred Knights - a Ku Klux Klan group from Indiana - were vastly outnumbered Saturday by hundreds of counterprotesters in Dayton.

Montgomery Courthouse Square and multiple blocks of downtown Dayton were shut down Saturday for the rally and protests that took place from 1 to 3 p.m. Law enforcement officials from Toledo, Cincinnati, Cleveland and multiple sheriff’s offices including Hamilton County's patrolled the streets on foot, bike and horse.

Protestors against the HSK and any HSK supporters were separated by a number of city blocks, chain link fences and armed law enforcement.

Few, if any, HSK supporters made themselves known in the diverse crowd of counterprotesters.

According to Dayton Police, the plan was to keep the groups as separate as possible to prevent clashes. The event went on without incident.

"I am very glad that today's events went off without incident and the hate group that tried to threatened our city is gone," Mayor Nan Whaley said in a statement.

Nine members from the Huey P. Newton Gun Club – a group that advocates for African American gun rights – arrived in full tactical gear with rifles. Dozens of other protesters were armed.

Associated Press reporter Dan Sewell reported that Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl says “this was a very safe day.”
