    According to Portland Police Bureau, the truck driver "has been released from the hospital and is recovering." (PPB isn't in touch with the other victim, who didn't go to the hospital.)https://twitter.com/portlandmercury/status/1295515475443499010 …

    Alex Zielinski added,

    Portland Mercury  🗞 @portlandmercury
    "They’re out there assaulting people, and they’re expecting to be protected by supporters of Black Lives Matter," said Danialle James, a longtime Portland activist. "It’s embarrassing. It's shameful." https://www.portlandmercury.com/blogtown/2020/08/17/28744136/its-a-stain-on-the-movement-portland-protest-organizers-condemn-truck-driver-assault …

        People were saying he was beat to death, so at least that part can be countered

        This was a roving group of thug criminals that set upon people simply for the color of their skin, all the while yelling out "Black Lives Matter!". This is becoming more and more common and we need everyone to denounce the violence.

        Do you plan to investigate whether the assailant is the same person who violently took over @riotribs last month, as has been asserted in /r/Portland? I'm interested to know that detail.

        Also a statement came from a bar employee out that the driver was drunk and waving a hatchet and yelling racial slurs just before this interaction.

        I haven’t seen the bar employee’s statement. Is there a link you could share? Thanks!
