Rioters in Portland, Oregon, returned to the city’s downtown area late Aug. 12 and set fires outside the federal courthouse before clashing with police.

Several hundred people gathered in Chapman Square and Lownsdale Square Park around 8:30 p.m., where they gave and listened to speeches for about two hours.
