MINNEAPOLIS -- Saturday's Ward 10 DFL Convention in Minneapolis was supposed to end with a candidate endorsed for city council. Instead, it ended with multiple people in the hospital and police on the scene - and no endorsement.

Prior to incumbent Aisha Chughtai's time to address the crowd, supporters of challenger Nasri Warsame approached and eventually took the stage.

The moment, captured on cell phone video, lasted for several minutes and forced the convention to end abruptly.

"It was a disruption, it was chaos," said DFL volunteer Quentin Wathum-Ocama. "I've never seen anything like this, and I've been doing this close to a decade."

Yup. The guy that wants Chughtai's job basically says he's there to represent the Somali community and that's about it.

Everyone's got a group to join!
