What began as a peaceful demonstration for George Floyd devolved into one of the most destructive nights in Portland history.
Widespread looting was visible at Pioneer Place mall, at Oregon’s flagship Apple store, a Louis Vuitton outlet, a Starbucks, an H&M clothing store and at Capital One, Chase and Wells Fargo banks. Other buildings caught up in the crowd’s rage included the Oregon State University store, a Target store, Kassal’s Jewelry, the Multnomah County courthouse, and doubtless many others.
