Another crowd showed up downtown around 11:00pm.  Police warned the crowd about criminal activity.  They spent a few hours deescalating the situation after a section of the fence at Southwest 3rd and Main was knocked down.  The crowd dispersed around 2:00am.

There were several other events that took place including a community bike ride to marches and rallies.  Skateboarders and scooter riders gathered at the Moda Center for a ride across the Steel Bridge onto the waterfront.
