Caption reads: "GUARD LEAVES, BUT SORROW STAYS- Some Michigan National Guard equipment rolls out of Detroit Tuesday after civil unrest subsided, but a woman weeps quietly as she heads for a funeral. Tanya Lynn Blanding, 4, was killed, apparently by a police or National Guard bullet, during the height of the burning, looting and killings last week. Her funeral was held Tuesday with some 200 mourners attending."
