    Armed supporters of the extreme left wing group Antifa have caused havoc in the US state of Oregon overnight.
    Reports from the US now indicate that one person has been arrested after pulling a weapon on police
    Local police from the Salem Police Department earlier in the day issued an ‘advisory’ asking local resident’s to avoid the area around the Oregon State Capitol building saying that “Due to activities expected at the Oregon Capitol today be aware there may be pedestrian congestion in the area,” adding “If poss(ible), avoid traveling thru streets around the capitol mall. Anyone observing criminal behavior should immediately move to a safe location & call 9-1-1.”
    It is understood that authorities then said that between 150-200 Antifa supporters were “heavily armed” and that “The risk of violence has increased as the opposing protestors are expected to arrive in large numbers.”
    Attacks on local car owners was later verified by independent Asian American journalist Andy Ngo in a series of Tweets in which he confirmed the presence of weapons in the Antifa ranks and that the Antifa flag bearing supporters were also damaging vehicles.
    As the evening wore on local police announced that the protest was an “unlawful assembly” with many of the protesters then moving back ahead of a slow moving police line seen on video clearing the streets around the State Capitol.
