Portland police arrive to treat a man shot near a pro-Trump rally

One person was shot and killed late on Saturday in Portland, Oregon, as a large caravan of President Donald Trump supporters and Black Lives Matter protesters clashed in the streets, police said.

It wasn't clear if the shooting was linked to fights that broke out as a caravan of about 600 vehicles was confronted by protesters in the city's downtown. An AP freelance photographer heard three gunshots and then observed police medics working on the victim's body.
