Portland Protests Persist as Some Bring Flashes of Violence

Associated Press

   PORTLAND, ORE. - More protests are expected in Portland, Oregon,
   throughout the weekend following violent demonstrations this week that
   have brought more unrest to the Northwest city.

   Since George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis protests have occurred
   nightly for 70 days. Friday night, Portland police declared an unlawful
   assembly at the Penumbra Kelly public safety building, ordering
   everyone in the area to leave. Authorities had previously warned people
   not to trespass on the property.
