Bizarre mugshots released after nearly 200 arrested following weekend of protests and riots in Portland
PORTLAND police arrested almost 200 people over the Labor Day weekend - and their newly released mugshots tell an interesting story of a city experiencing protests and social unrest for 100 days straight.
The march headed towards the Portland Police Association building that had been the target of various arsonists during the civil unrest the city has seen over the course of more than three months. When marchers arrived at the PPA building, chants of "burn it down" were heard as police warned protesters to clear the area for vehicular traffic.
