One person was shot and killed late Saturday in Portland, Oregon, as a large caravan of President Donald Trump supporters and social justice protesters clashed in the streets, police said. The victim was a "good friend" of the right-wing group Patriot Prayer, founder Joey Gibson said Sunday. It wasn’t immediately clear if the shooting was linked to fights that broke out as a caravan of hundreds of vehicles was confronted by protesters in the city’s downtown. Portland has been the site of nightly protests for more than three months since the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. President Trump responded to the confrontations with a Twitter barrage Sunday. "This is not what our great Country wants. They want Safety & Security, and do NOT want to Defund our Police," the president wrote. The caravan marked the third Saturday in a row that Trump supporters have rallied in the city.
Thousands march in Kenosha: The family of Jacob Blake, a Black man who was shot in the back seven times by a Kenosha police officer, led a march through the city on Saturday as thousands followed. Activists, supporters and elected officials spoke about accountability and justice for Blake, who is now paralyzed from the waist down.
