Protesters were blocked by law enforcement as they tried to make their way to the Portland Police Association, the scene of previous unrest.
Portland police blocked and advanced on demonstrators they said were throwing missiles during unrest in the north of the city that has been riven by protests for more than two months.
After they found out that around 400 people would be heading to the Portland Police Association building, which had been the scene of previous violent demonstrations, officers positioned themselves to block the marchers. Portland police tweeted:"Failure to adhere to this order may subject you to arrest, citation, and/or the use of crowd control agents, including, but not limited to tear gas and/or impact weapons. Disperse immediately."
