Over 200 were arrested amid confrontations with police.

Stands and pens along the parade route were astonishingly empty by early afternoon. Democracy, it seemed, was in the streets. Small bands of protesters, unable or unwilling to reach designated protest zones, smashed the windows of vehicles and banks. Washington police said 217 demonstrators were arrested, and accused of rioting during inauguration protests. Six officers suffered mi...
