Portland Protest Leaves Woman Dead And Others Injured

A woman is dead and five others are wounded after a shooting during a protest in a Portland park.

The Oregonian says police responded at about 8pm last night to a shooting in Normandale Park, where protesters were demanding justice for Amir Locke, the unarmed black man who was fatally shot by Minneapolis police earlier this month. Portland Police found six shooting victims at the park.

Three women and two men were taken to hospitals, and their conditions are unknown. One woman was dead when officers arrived on scene. The circumstances of the shooting are not clear, and there's been no report of arrests.
