a city and port in northeastern Ohio, United States. On July 18, 1966 rioting broke out on Cleveland's east side where thousands of blacks had been crowded together in recent years in one of the nation's most decayed slum areas. Ohio National Guardsmen were sent out to aid the police, but by the time order had been restored, four blacks had been killed by gunfire and more than fifty people had been injured.
