Riot cops in autumn
Twenty-five protesters were arrested between 1 and 3 a.m. Sunday morning in Jamison Square (in the Pearl District of Portland) when they staged a sit-in in solidarity with other Occupy sites. About 75 police in riot gear, six mounted police, another twenty or so police on bicycles, and a number of police in cars, vans, and on foot made the arrests during a non-violent protest. The riot police were wearing guns and carrying billy clubs.
