Protester Handcuffed After Flipping the Bird at Portland Police

The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office said 30 arrests were made by combined law enforcement agencies in Portland during various protests on September 26.

One protester was seen taken down and cuffed by several police officers, when he gave an offensive gesture. Orlando Edwards, who posted this video, wrote, “Portland protestor is arrested for apparently giving an expletive message to the police?”

Edwards said he recorded this incident near the Justice Center in Portland. Streets near the center were blocked when crowds gathered on Saturday evening, police said, and several arrests were made. Credit: Orlando Edwards via Storyful
