Antifa rally in Portland results in vandalism, three arrests – By John Sexton (Hot Air) / Feb 10 2020
There was a KKK rally scheduled to take place in Portland Saturday but the organizer canceled it before it even began. Despite this, antifa held a large counter-rally. That rally stated out without incident but over time some members of the group began harassing people and also vandalized a war memorial. Here’s the description from the Portland police:
While the rally was being held and was peaceful, Portland Police officers stayed away. However, some people in the group began acting in a violent, threatening manner against attendees who were legally capturing photos and videos. Officers responded to address specific criminal acts.
Metal-tipped umbrellas were used to jab toward people and chase them down the street, and objects (including rocks, concrete, batons, cans, and food) were thrown at community members and police. There has also been vandalism, including spray paint on walls and a war memorial (photos). At least two incendiary devices (believed to be flares) were thrown into the street while vehicular traffic was driving by.
