In between, about 150 leftists pelted the Multnomah County Justice Center with eggs and clashed with riot police on Nov.

It was a small-scale protest by Portland standards, but as large as any per capita in the nation following the Rittenhouse verdict, as people shattered windows and Multnomah County sheriff’s deputies forcefully dispersed the crowd.

At around 7:30 pm Friday, members of a crowd dressed in black to obscure their identities spray-painted the Justice Center.

At 8:30 pm, members of the crowd pursued and yelled at a group of people leaving the Justice Center side entrance, believing that they were Portland police officers leaving the building for a shift change.

Around 8:45 pm, members of the crowd disassembled segments of the fencing around Chapman Square, and used the gathered materials to block the northeast garage door entrance of the Justice Center.

This prompted a squad of nine Multnomah County sheriff’s deputies armed with less-lethal crowd control weapons to line up in the tunnel facing the driveway.

Many of the Multnomah County sheriff's deputies who clashed with protesters at the Justice Center on Friday were not wearing name tags or identification numbers.
