Video: US police fire tear gas at anti-government protesters in Portland
Anti-government and anti-fascist protesters in Portland and Seattle scuffled with police on Wednesday, protesting against President Joe Biden's inauguration.
Portland police said on Twitter that around 150 people had gathered at the local Federal ICE building forcing the police to use tear gas to disperse them.
The new Democratic president was sworn in on Wednesday, urging unity and restoration after Republican Donald Trump's divisive tenure.
The protests began in the summer as part of nationwide demonstrations against racism and police brutality following the death of George Floyd, a Black man who died in Minneapolis in May after police pinned his neck to the ground for nearly nine minutes.
