<u>By the time night arrived, the protest was even more fired up as there was a direct confrontation between the police and protesters and police was clearing the crowd by thrashing bystanders also.</u> The use of tear gas by the police was so much that it reached up to the 25th floor where the presidential candidate Humphrey was staying. This protest went on for another two days and finally ended with the end of the Democratic convention.
