PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Portland police declared Saturday night’s protest a riot in the early morning hours of Sunday after several fires were started, including one at the Portland Police Association building.

Demonstrations against systemic racism and police brutality have happened daily in The Rose City since Minneapolis police killed George Floyd on May 25.
