Multiple flash bangs going off near Westlake in downtown Seattle. #GeorgeFloydprotest #seattleprotest

Ahead of a planned event at 3, most protesters are in the streets facing lines of bike cops. A few waiting here in Westlake Park. – at Westlake Park

While Andre Taylor of Not This Time speaks, the bulk of the protesters start marching South on 5th Avenue.

Hundreds march onto I-5 at Spring Street

I-5 Southbound in downtown Seattle closed temporarily by protesters. Cars are getting by 1 lane now. #GeorgeFloydprotest

On I-5 where hundreds marched through traffic, this group laid down and chanted, "I can't breathe."

With a brief spurt of rubber bullets from police the crowd goes running up the offramp.

Just south of me: large cloud of tear gas. To the north downtown: black smoke from a reported car fire. #seattleprotest #GeorgeFloydprotest 1

Protesters run from rubber bullets and tear gas as cars downtown wait for the light to change.

Downtown Seattle smells strongly of tear gas. Sirens ring constantly in the distance. Protesters added a pallet & debris to this car fire. The 5 o'clock downtown curfew has come and gone. #GeorgeFloydprotest #seattleprotest – at Nordstrom Corporate Headquarters

There is a tense standoff now between protesters and police on Pike in front of Nordstrom's. More flash bangs, stores broken into, and a lot more riot police just arrived with batons. #seattleprotest #GeorgeFloydprotest

Yellow clouds of tear gas and regular flash bangs. Protesters are carrying spray bottles of milk for their eyes.
