KGW News: Federal agent shoots Portland protester in the head with crowd control weapon

A protester standing across the street from the federal courthouse was hit in the head by what appeared to be an impact munition fired by a federal officer. A spokesperson at Legacy Emmanuel Hospital said Sunday evening the man, 26-year-old Donavan LaBella, was in serious condition. Video on social media from Tomas Morales IV shows LaBella was standing across the street from the federal courthouse when the incident happened. He had his arms raised above his head and was holding what looks like a large black speaker. The video shows a federal officer throwing a canister that lands near the man. He first tries to kick it away, then picks up the canister and tosses it back toward the courthouse. Full story: Subscribe: Get the KGW app:
