After a night of peace, a riot broke out in Portland overnight, extending the chain of nearly unabated unrest since late May.

A march that started at Laurelhurst Park ended up at the Penumbra Kelly building, which houses a Multonomah County Sheriff’s Office and a Portland Police office. The group blocked traffic, forcing firefighters responding to a nearby house fire to reroute.
