According to Tasnim dispatches, at least 217 anti-Trump protesters were arrested during the clashes on Friday a few blocks from the White House.
More than 500 people in black clothes and masks threw rocks and bottles at officers wearing riot gear, who responded with tear gas and stun grenades.
During the violence, several vehicles, including a black limousine were set on fire.
Additionally, people dragged garbage cans into a street a few blocks from the White House and set them ablaze.
According to police, six officers were injured in scuffles with protesters.
Friday's protests played out just blocks from Pennsylvania Avenue, where Donald Trump took part in the traditional parade a newly sworn in president takes from the US Capitol to the White House.
The various protest groups scattered around the city chanted anti-Trump slogans and carried signs with slogans including "Trump is not our president", "Make Racists Afraid Again”, “Resist Trump”, “Trump Lies Matter”, and “Say No to The Trump Agenda on Inauguration Day”.
