The evening of violence left demonstrators and government officials exhausted. The riot ended in a "sit-in." When the demonstration permit expired at midnight, Marshals began arresting any demonstrators who so much as touched the soldiers.
 

Six hundred and eighty-two demonstrators were processed in makeshift hearing rooms at the District Workhouse in Occoquan, Virginia.  Most were charged with disorderly conduct after refusing to leave restricted Federal property.

Sunday, 8:00 a.m. - The Aftermath:

Early Sunday morning, workmen began to clean up the beer cans, food, shoes, shirts, pants, sweaters, placards, and of the rubble of a riot.  Other workmen white-washed the Pentagon walls, erasing the obscenities and other riot stains.  All around them, a few determined demonstrators remained the rest of the day in an exhausted cry for peace.
