Police in Portland, Oregon, declared an unlawful assembly Saturday after antifa protesters clashed with far-right demonstrators, including the Proud Boys, in the downtown area, resulting in multiple injuries.
Authorities believe some demonstrators during the noontime action threw"milkshakes" that were actually cups filled with quick-drying concrete, a powder-and-water mixture that can set in as little as 10 minutes.
"During today's events, there were multiple assaults reported, as well as projectiles thrown at demonstrators and officers," police said."There were also reports of pepper spray and bear spray being used by people in the crowd. Officers deployed pepper spray during the incident." Officers in riot gear cleared downtown and Pioneer Courthouse Square, warning that stragglers would be arrested.
