AUSTIN, Texas — As the official "No Kings" protest at the Texas Capitol ended, police closed a number of streets in Downtown Austin as protesters began walking through downtown.
Demonstrations in McAllen, Midland, Odessa, Austin and elsewhere in Texas were largely peaceful, as some protests went well into the night.
The “day of defiance” protests began as early as 10 a.m. in North Texas, while the Washington, D.C., military parade for the Army’s 250th birthday starts at 5:30 p.m. Central.
A breakdown of who was charged with what and why wasn't immediately available, but the protest and related marches shut down streets throughout the day and into Saturday night.
Despite peaceful demonstrations reported in multiple cities, violence flared at some anti-Trump protests over the weekend.
