The 1966 Chicago West Side Riot was a public disorder that occurred between July 12 and 15 in Chicago, Illinois. After a man was arrested for opening a fire hydrant, black residents took to the streets in anger and looted and burned various stores throughout the West Side until the arrival of 1,200 National Guardsmen on July 15. Violence quickly subsided and most of the troops were sent home on July 20.
The west side riots of 1966 were only a prelude to the explosion to come. Two years later, in April 1968, Chicago erupted after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.
