Police Invade Cleveland Chinatown
During the 1925 Tong Wars, the police conducted multiple raids on Chinatown. While the intention may have been to stop the wars themselves, all Chinese in Cleveland soon became a target for arrest. This photo faces north on Ontario Street. The Cuyahoga County Courthouse stands at the end of the block. | Date: September 24, 1925 | Source: Cleveland Memory, Michael Schwartz Library Special Collections at Cleveland State University
