A group of at least 600 people protested the election of Donald Trump Thursday evening.
The group began in the 2000 block of North Charles Street and proceeded downtown. During the protest, two people were detained by police.
No one has been charged. During the protest, some people blocked roadways and sat in the streets, but police said the majority was peaceful and law abiding.
Protests have erupted nationwide in response to the election. President-elect Donald Trump tweeted in response to the protests.
Love the fact that the small groups of protesters last night have passion for our great country. We will all come together and be proud!

Just had a very open and successful presidential election. Now professional protesters, incited by the media, are protesting. Very unfair!
