Sporadic protests broke out around the country after a jury in Kenosha, Wisconsin, found Kyle Rittenhouse not guilty in the shooting deaths of two people during protests there last year.
In New York, demonstrators shut down the Brooklyn Bridge, and in Portland, Oregon, they forced open a jail gate, prompting the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office to declare a riot."The crowd, which was described as hostile, launched urine, alcoholic beverages, water bottles and batteries at deputies during the event," the sheriff's office said in a press release early Saturday morning.
In Oakland, California, a crowd marched from city hall to the federal building, shouting"Revolution nothing else," according to CNN affiliate KGO. Demonstrators in Chicago marched downtown Friday night amid a"large police presence," CNN affiliate WBBM reported. A second demonstration is planned for Saturday afternoon. Demonstrators in Chicago marched around the city's Loop Friday night.
