50-75 antifascists gathered in the commercial zone of downtown Portland, marching to the inJustice Center, where police attempted to immediately go out and confront the demonstrators but failed. Protesters lit a garbage fire, in response to which an emergency response police team arrived and failed to snuff out the fire. A right-wing streamer harassed the protesters, in response to which the demonstrators threw water bottles among other objects at his car, forcing him to leave. As to not give the streamer any more exposure, his advertising on the video has been censored.
