Some photos from the #GeorgeFloyd vigil at Peninsula Park this evening. Hundreds filled the park to mourn Floyd and others, speak to the crowd and show solidarity with protests around the country. Will soon be marching to Justice Center downtown
At the corner of NE Shaver & MLK, a VW Gold lunged into the crowd. It was pummeled & pursued in reverse down shaver and stopped. After an altercation I couldn’t see, roared south. I heard two loud pops, people ran, then it raced back north through intersection & hit skateboarder
*Golf, obviously. The man who was hit said he was ok. He was hit quite hard
Some sporadic breaking of windows along MLK, vast majority of demonstrators sticking to road, marching and chanting
Windows broken, fire set inside, then put out. Police now deploying gas, pepper balls, demanding crowd disperse
Bonfire set on 4th and I think Morrison? Police continue to force crowd north with gas and flashbangs
