Portland police detain more than 100 people during protest
2021-03-14
[NYPOST] Portland police cracked down on protesters Friday night, detaining more than 100 people in hopes of preventing a second night of window smashing and fire-setting.Protestors had gathered in the Pearl District in downtown Portland around 8:30 p.m., but cops quickly warned anyone who blocked the streets would be arrested.
"and given a hickory shampoo. Anyone released will have a permanent limp. Go ahead..."
At around 9:20 p.m., cops said on Twitter they were setting up a perimeter around the demonstrators and detaining them.

But they said the detention was temporary and that protestors would be escorted out "one at a time."

A crowd stood outside the perimeter chanting "let them go," according to OregonLive, which also reported cops pepper-sprayed two demonstrators.

The detained protesters were released after being photographed individually by the police; it was unclear if any were charged with crimes.
If they were, they’ll be released without bond or even so much as a warning. That’s the way they swing in Portland.
Ongoing anti-police protests turned violent mostly peaceful on Thursday when rioters smashed windows near a federal court and set fires. Police responded with tear gas and smoke bombs to drive away the crowds, the outlet reported.
