.@OrHist exec director Kerry Tymchuk: most of damage limited to smashed windows. 3 flares thrown into museum scorched carpet, but no exhibits damaged.
One thing stolen: an African American heritage Bicentennial quilt, made by local Black women. Police found it blocks away, wet.
.@OrHist exec director Kerry Tymchuk says this morning, he found a note inside the museum with $1 attached.
A homeless man named Oscar wrote he didn’t have much to give, but he saw the damage & wanted to help, adding “You once gave me a free tour. So this is a thank you.”
.@tedwheeler tells reporters: city has reduced @PortlandPolice budget by $27 million. "That is substantial ... Any further reductions are going to have to clear a very high bar from my perspective."
Just got escorted into the @OrHist, after people smashed windows & threw flares into it last night.

Here’s the Afro-American Heritage Bicentennial Commemorative Quilt, which was stolen from the @OrHist last night. Was made by 15 local Black women (ahead of the Bicentennial).

And here’s info on the quilt itself, including details on a panel scheduled for Thursday with the one quilter (out of 15) who’s still living. It was planned well before this weekend. https://ohs.org/events/stitching-history.cfm …
2 bullets &, the owner believes, a baseball bat came through windows at Heroes American Cafe (SW Park & Clay). He says he got a phone call from someone days ago, letting them know they’d be targeted at some point. The owner, a veteran, has photos of first responders on the walls.pic.twitter.com/wbBWr7G5bg
Oh ffs can he just resign already? He's literally not doing anything to help anyone right now and obviously doesn't want this job.
