Vicky Taft at PJM says Mystery Solved: This Is What It Takes for Local Cops to Arrest Somebody at Portland ICE HQ
Though they claim to have arrested 72 people, Portland cops have had a hands-off attitude for most of the six months of loud, large, and dangerous violence in front of the facility. It's likely that many of the arrests were catch-and-release.
On Friday, after 9:00 p.m., when the dangerous witching hour begins outside of ICE, Portland Police officers chatted up a "hijab-wearing" Trantifa man dressed as a woman, and soon regretted it when the dude hauled off and punched a sergeant in the face.
Crazy night at the Portland ice facility. Second arrest in less than an hour.@nicooregon got this on her livestream, seems like she tried to assault the cop after she was detained. pic.twitter.com/je4Ba564ga

Protesters can assault, mob, and chase reporters on the streets of Portland without fear of arrest, but a full-grown man punching a cop in the face in front of a crowd will get arrested.
Twenty-eight-year-old Shean D. Broughton was arrested for "Assaulting a Public Safety Officer, Resisting Arrest, and Disorderly Conduct in the Second Degree," according to a press release issued Saturday afternoon.
Shean identifies as a "BPOC," "it/its" who is obsessed with Japanese anime and sewing. He posted this earlier in the day, announcing that he was suffering from "being so depressy (schizophrenia + cptsd) and chronic physical health."
So, just your run-of-the mill Portlander.
