CLEVELAND — Federal authorities said Tuesday they have found no credible security threats ahead of next week's Republican National Convention, as the city girds itself for what is expected to be an onslaught of protests and activism.
Cleveland officials made headlines last month when they announced the city would be taking out a $50 million "riot insurance" policy. On the same day authorities held their press conference, Hashim Nzinga, chairman of the New Black Panther Party, told Reuters his group plans to exercise their constitutional right to bear arms when they arrive to the city later this week.
