A picnic table was put on top of the fire. It’s really growing now. pic.twitter.com/zWLyH69UC4

A bonfire is burning on the intersection. The crowd is chanting "F*ck Ted Wheeler!". #PortlandProrests #PDXprotests #BlackLivesMatter pic.twitter.com/nMqPlc3d4v

Earlier in the night in Portland, antifa rioters calmly smashed up a random business to protest police & @tedwheeler. They stole furniture from inside to use as tinder for their fire. They then set the office’s lobby on fire. #PortlandsRiots pic.twitter.com/b7rNvAEqNn
