   Anaheim's police chief on Tuesday decried the unrest and   
   violence on the streets of the city's downtown, saying his   
   officers had shown "great restraint" amid angry protests.   
      
   Scores of demonstrators converged on City Hall to protest a   
   fatal officer-involved shooting Saturday.   
      
   Chief John Welter said that officers had rocks and bottles   
   thrown at them. Officers responded with nonlethal rounds.   
      
   "I respect the people's right to demonstrate, but I wish that   
   they weren't demonstrating in a violent manner," Welter said.   
      
   He added that some in the crowd did not appear to be residents   
   of Anaheim. "This concerns me greatly."   
      
   Shortly before 9 p.m. Tuesday, law enforcement officers in   
   Anaheim issued a dispersal order to protesters at the   
   intersection of Anaheim and Broadway.   
      
   One officer used a megaphone to declare an unlawful assembly and   
   shouted to demonstrators to leave the area: "You must disperse   
   .. if you do not, you will be arrested."   
      
   At least two arrests have been made, authorities said, and an   
   Orange County Register reporter was injured by a thrown rock.   
      
   Just after 9 p.m., authorities fired nonlethal projectiles into   
   the crowd, scattering many of the demonstrators.   
      
   The crowd quickly moved toward a corner gas station, where   
   people pounded on pumps as others chanted "Si se puede." Some   
   set off firecrackers in the lot as people ran away. At one point   
   a black police truck was struck by an object.
