Описание к видео Portland police sergeant says protest violence directed at him is lowest point in 18-year-career

Portland’s mayor and police chief spent much of Thursday and Friday decrying nightly demonstrations that have turned destructive, a surge in shootings and homicides and other public safety concerns that have gripped the city in recent weeks.

In a rare occurrence, cops on the front lines have been permitted to speak out about them, too.

Several rank-and-file officers this week provided firsthand accounts of their work amid heated protests, increasing gun violence, calls for reforms and budget cuts.

Sgt. Brent Maxey said the vitriol and acts of violence directed at him during a pair of demonstrations marked some of the lowest points in his 18 years with the bureau.
