AND THUNDERSTORMS RETURN SATURDAY NIGHT. SOME COULD BE HEAVY, SOME COULD EVEN BE SEVERE. WE'LL TRACK THEM FOR YOU WITH YOUR WEEKEND FORECAST STARTED GREAT TO HAVE YOU WITH US. >> TENSIONS HIGH AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO TODAY AS TWO GROUPS OF PROTESTERS CLASHED ON THE MAIN QUAD. >> CBS 2'S DARIUS JOHNSON LIVED FOR US ON THE HYDE PARK CAMPUS, AND DARIUS, IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S BEEN AN ACTIVE DAY THERE. >> Reporter: YES INDEED, JOE AND IRIKA.
