Some sprayed anti-police graffiti on the county building and scrawled instructions to “aim here” across the windows on the first floor. “The unprovoked actions by those who engaged in criminal behavior is reprehensible,” Multnomah County Sheriff Mike Reese said in a statement Wednesday. “I do know there are some Black Lives Matter protesters that do not support the more radical violence,” he said.

The Multnomah Building, where the local sheriff has offices, was a new target for the protesters.
