Graffiti criticizing police and Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been painted on businesses in the area. Some businesses’ windows were also smashed by protesters.
While customers were still inside, the windows of a Chipotle on Northwest Lovejoy Street were shattered around 9:30 p.m. Saturday. A Starbucks, an Urban Pantry, and an Umpqua Bank were among the businesses affected. Residents screamed at demonstrators from their balconies to “go home” as they called for police to “go home.”
Portland: Using rocks, batons & weapons, #antifa smashed up businesses and cars in the Pearl District overnight. They completely shut down the roads. The same area was severely vandalized by antifa back when Trump won election in 2016. pic.twitter.com/5Hcr8COgz8

Other videos allegedly show police walking away from approaching the demonstrators due to their level of violence.
Because of “several shootings” that had happened in other areas of the city, according to KOIN, Portland police forces were overwhelmed as the violence continued, restricting their ability to enforce the law.
Just two people were arrested, one for first-degree criminal mischief and the other for interfering with a peace officer and third-degree escape by a 17-year-old protester.
