A group of around 60 people gathered at a North Portland park Thursday night and then left the area around 8:45 p.m. local time, marching toward the home of Portland City Commissioner Dan Ryan. Once there, authorities said protesters broke a window, threw burning flares and paint-filled balloons at the home and broke potted plants. Police then moved to disperse the crowd.

"This is the fourth night in the past week Commissioner Ryan has had agitators cause both vandalism and disruption to his home and neighborhood."
After dispersing the crowd, one vehicle connected to the demonstration fled from police, authorities said. That individual, Bryan Ortega-Schwartz, 36, was later apprehended and charged with attempt to elude in a vehicle and reckless driving. Police also made an additional arrest after protesters were blocking city streets.

It was at 10 p.m. when the sheriff's office said Portland Fire and Rescue got a call that city hall was on fire. It is believed a burning object was thrown or placed at the door, which caused the fire. On-site security was able to extinguish the blaze before it could spread, authorities said.MORE: Cities nationwide bracing for potential violence on Election Day that's peaceful -- so far A fire investigator is acting working the case and police are still looking for the suspect who lit the building on fire.

DPST's are 'so Proud" of their non-violent protests (ala hannah-Jones) - which only damage property. Taxpayer property - city Hall
and - marxist mayor Ted Wheeler won re-election - count on nightly riots for another four years. I wonder where Wheeler will office if City hall is burned???? Wwheeler would look good and appropriate officing in the city sewers! This is the administration America is electing - and what america elects - it Deserves.
of course, the police number to report is a sham - and the local DA will promptly release any and all socialist revolutionaries back to the streets for the next night of
"DPST non-Violence" - the city leaders are all admitted, committed Bernie marxists intent on violent revolution - and succeeding in Portland . They give the marxit rioters a pass - and imprison any opposition - ala kyle rittenhausen.
and - seem to be succeeding in the marxist state of oregon - which does love its marxist OBLM and Antifa riots!!!
A story you won't find on the marxist DPST and DNC controlled LSM - or beter LSSM - Lame Stream socialist media!
