Flash Bangs Fired to Disperse Protesters in Portland

Authorities fired flash bangs to disperse protesters in Portland, Oregon, late on July 7 and into July 8, following a vigil held for Summer Taylor, a Seattle protester who died after a car dove through a crowd on July 4.

This footage shows parts of the vigil. In the video, masked protesters hand out wipes and saline solution during a sit-in outside a federal courthouse, and flash bangs are fired as authorities move in to disperse those gathered.

According to news reports, protesters have taken to the streets in Portland for 40 consecutive nights since the death of George Floyd sparked unrest nationwide. Credit: @gravemorgan via Storyful
