Federal cops ‘instigating’ confrontations with protesters outside ICE building,
Portland police official says in court
A Portland Police Bureau assistant chief said in court recently that federal police were “instigating” some of the clashes between officers and protesters outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in South Portland.
Other records reveal police were aware of — and concerned about — potential excessive use of force by federal police as early as mid-June. Portland Mayor Keith Wilson recently called on the Department of Homeland Security to investigate federal officers’ use of force against nonviolent protesters captured on video and published by The Oregonian/OregonLive.
