Police in Portland, Oregon, say they arrested 71 people late Saturday and early Sunday during anti-Donald Trump protests downtown.
In a news release Sunday, the Portland Police Bureau said the protesters failed to obey numerous lawful orders to vacate city streets. Most were cited for disorderly conduct and failing to obey an officer.
The bureau called in a public transit bus to transport the arrested to the central police precinct for processing.
Police said protesters repeatedly threw road flares and bottles at officers and that a police sport-utility vehicle was tagged with graffiti.

The chairman of Oregon’s Republican Party is calling on Gov. Kate Brown to mobilize the National Guard and state troopers in response to anti-Donald Trump protests in Portland.
Demonstrators have conducted nightly protests in the city since Election Day. Police arrested dozens of people late Saturday and early Sunday. Officers said they found a stockpile of bricks and rocks, and that police and at least one film crew have been assaulted.
Two people were arrested in the nonfatal shooting of a protester early Saturday, and organizers said they would stage a vigil for the victim on Sunday from 4 to 7 p.m.
Currier says that instead of closing Interstate 5 to allow protesters to march on the highway, the governor should be using National Guard trucks and state troopers “to block these unlawful protests.”

Police in Portland, Oregon, say they arrested dozens of people late Saturday and early Sunday as rowdy anti-Donald Trump protesters marched through downtown again.
An exact number of arrests wasn’t immediately available, but police said they intended to release more information at noon Sunday.
The demonstrations Saturday night happened despite calls from the city’s mayor and police chief for calm.
Several hundred people took to the streets Saturday night and police arrested people after protesters threw bottles and blocked streets and light rail lines.
The gathering came after a news conference Saturday in which Mayor Charlie Hayes and Police Chief Mike Marshman urged people to restrain themselves after several days of violent marches that damaged property and left one person shot.
