Saw a flare being fired into or being thrown into a police suv. The police also took that out. That fire we saw was just a few minutes ago. These are live pictures of kptv in oregon, the official protest cancelled, we have seen now just dozens and dozens of these people, basically just moving freely through the streets, kicking in windows at several stores, sara sidner has been in seattle, and she joins us now at the protest that is going on in portland. Sarah, this protest in portland, the official protest was cancelled, but theres clearly a number of people that the police are describing as anarchists who seem to be moving down a block in an uncontrolled way at this point. Reporter yeah, i think
been destroyed. And so there is a lot of consternation there, where there are folks here who are concerned about that same group, the antifa, or antifascists. They sometimes call themselves far left. Youre actually seeing a Police Vehicle with tactical units, basically hanging on either side
