WATCH DNC CHICAGO PROTESTS: Pro Palestinian protestors have entered the vicinity in Chicago at the DNC United Center, arrests are being made amongst fears they could turn violent.

There were multiple arrests just outside the building in what have been ongoing protests all planned all week by many groups.

Security at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago was increased Tuesday after a group of protesters broke down fencing and breached a secure area on the first day.

Officials began installing additional fences at Washington Boulevard and Wood Street about two blocks from the United Center where the convention will be held through Thursday.

The protesters didn't get far and events at the DNC were not disrupted. Crews added a second layer of fence and began installing a second story. Additional anchors and locks were added to secure the fence in place.

What began as a peaceful demonstration turned chaotic and dangerous during a DNC-related march Monday afternoon. Chicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling initially reported that at least four people were arrested. As of Tuesday morning, Snelling said approximately 10 people were arrested in relation to the fence breach. Since protests began on Sunday, 13 people have been taken into custody.
