Anti-fascists clash with far-right Proud Boys in Portland
Members of the far-right Proud boys clash with anti-fascists in Portland

ANTI-FASCISTS clashed with the Proud Boys in Portland, Oregon, on Sunday night, with one far-right protester opening fire on a group of counter-demonstrators.

The gunman, identified by police as Dennis G Anderson, crouched behind a bin and shot at anti-fascists who had peacefully gathered in the centre of the west coast US city.

No-one was hit, but several people were injured as the far-right group attacked individuals in a violent spree after a Proud Boys had held a reunion in an abandoned store car park earlier in the day.
