“The governor said about 2,200 National Guardsmen will be in the region, up from about 700 last night. The governor said National Guard troops on Monday were protecting public property and key infrastructure, but would be deployed in protecting homes and businesses on Tuesday. Protesters Monday night had set police cruisers on fire, smashed windows and looted stores, while police responded by firing nonlethal munitions and tear gas at crowds. By morning, more than 20 businesses were burned and more than 60 people were arrested.”
