As dusk fell Tuesday night, Baltimore was a city on edge – bracing for further violence while hoping that a huge police presence and a 10 p.m. curfew would prevent a second night of rioting.

At a late afternoon press conference, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan said there would be 2,000 National Guardsmen on duty Tuesday night, along with 1,000 law enforcement officers, and "this combined force will not tolerate violence or looting."

The streets were largely calm into early evening, with the real test expected to come after the curfew was in place.

But the results of Monday night’s rioting were everywhere – in the burned out cars and buildings, the looted stores and the lives of innocents who lost everything in the violence that led to a reported 235 arrests and left 20 police officers injured.

Baltimore public schools were closed. The Baltimore Orioles canceled Tuesday’s night’s game at Camden Yards and said Wednesday’s contest would be closed to the public.
