violent-protests/
A US Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility burned during a Saturday
night protest in Portland, Ore., that ended with federal agents shooting
pepper balls to disperse rioters, according to reports.
The run-in marked another evening of chaos in the City of Roses, where
sometimes-violent protests have raged nearly nightly for almost a year.
“The Portland ICE facility is currently on fire,” wrote independent
journalist Grace Morgan in a tweet accompanied by a 7-second video clip of
the small blaze.
In the clip, flames lap at a large sheet of wood on the building’s
exterior marked with graffiti messages such as, “Reunite!” and “F–k ICE.”
Clips posted by Morgan and other freelance journalists on Twitter do not
show exactly how the fire started, but previous tweets show rioters
starting a small blaze in a facility driveway a few feet away.
“First ANTIFA fire of the night has already kicked off, so far people are
just warming their hands on this cold night,” Morgan captioned a still
photo of about a half-dozen people gathered around a small blaze, some
reaching their hands close to it.
By the next tweet in Morgan’s thread, rioters had begun pelting the
facility with projectiles.
“A small fire is started in the ICE driveway among broken glass bottles, a
flair [sic] is thrown over the gate, protesters throw eggs at the door,”
she wrote. “So far no response or sight of officers.”
Rioters ignored loudspeaker warnings against trespassing and ripped down
fences at the building’s perimeter, wrote Morgan.
The driveway fire, meanwhile, grew larger, fed by what appeared to be at
least two wooden pallets, Morgan’s photos show.
“Fire outside the Portland ICE facility,” she captioned one shot of the
growing flames. “The crowd chants ‘This is what community looks like!'”
Morgan’s next tweet contained the video of the front of the facility on
fire.
“The ICE building has been set on fire,” wrote Chris Landis, another
freelance journalist, in a separate shot of the flames climbing up the
side of the structure.
Subsequent videos posted by Morgan show federal agents emerge from the
building to push back the rioters with force.
“Federal agents retreat and unload hundreds of pepper bullets on
protesters outside the Portland ICE facility,” she captioned one such
tweet.
It was not immediately clear if anyone was injured or arrested in the
chaos.
Protests have raged across Portland since last year, fueled variously by
police brutality, racial discrimination and a disdain of US immigration
policy.
The demonstrations have often devolved into violent clashes, whether with
law enforcement, right-wing counterprotesters or local politicians.
