| President Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day was marred by noisy demonstrations, shoving matches and sporadic clashes with cops that resulted in more than 200 arrests. All of the 217 people arrested on Friday were charged with rioting, Acting Police Chief Peter Newsham said. Six officers suffered minor injuries when protesters flung bricks, trash cans and other objects, and ignited small fires, police said. The worst fracas erupted in Franklin Square, about a mile-and-a-half from Capitol Hill, just before Trump’s swearing-in ceremony got underway. |
