A violent mob attacked a motorist and his passenger during a domestic terrorist attack in downtown Portland, Oregon.
Video shows the driver being restrained by thugs and beaten to a bloody pulp in the street. Another person ran from behind and kicked the man in the face – knocking him out.
Andy Ngo, a journalist who has been covering these protests, reported that the man crashed his car and the “mob pulled him out & beat him senseless in front of the passenger. He’s bleeding & unconscious. No police.”
The Oregonian reports that a female passenger was tackled and thrown to the ground while others began pillaging and plundering the contents of the truck.
Sgt. Kevin Allen, a police spokesman, said reports indicate that protesters “were chasing the truck before it crashed, and they assaulted the driver after the crash.”
He said responding officers “encountered a hostile crowd and a squad from the Rapid Response Team responded to help secure the scene while the investigation was underway.”
