In Portland, Oregon, a Saturday night shooting left one woman dead and five people injured. It started with a confrontation between an armed homeowner and armed protesters. The two men and three women who were injured were able to get transported to local hospitals; however, their status is unknown. Protesters were gathered in Normandale Park to protest the killing of Amir Locke, a 22-year-old Black man fatally shot by Minneapolis police during the execution of a no-knock warrant. Officers are unaware of the reasoning behind this crime or who was responsible.
