Portland protests: Police arrest demonstrators after declaring unlawful assembly

It was another night of arrests as police and protesters clashed in Portland, Oregon on Sunday - one night after a man was shot and killed in the city. After declaring an unlawful assembly after saying protesters were seen throwing projectiles, police began arresting demonstrators, and at one point, while arresting someone, police began to shove the crowd back - knocking one person into the press. Anti-racism protests have roiled downtown Portland every night for more than three months calling for police reform following the May 25 killing of George Floyd, the Black man who died under the knee of a white police officer in Minneapolis.
