An anti-war march in Grand Rapids marking the fourth anniversary of the Iraq invasion Saturday led to the arrests of four people, including a Grand Valley State University professor.

About 150 demonstrators gathered at the corner of East Beltline Avenue and Burton Street SE at about 12:30 p.m. before marching to the home of U.S. Rep. Vernon Ehlers. The protest, organized by the Grand Rapids chapter of the anti-war group ACTIVATE, was part of a nationwide call for the end of the war in Iraq.
