from the bourgeois press<\/del>:<\/em><\/p>\n

Police said a Molotov cocktail was set off in an exterior stairwell at the World Trade Center<\/a> in downtown Portland tonight, and they believe protesters at Occupy Portland might be responsible.<\/p>\n

Someone called 9-1-1 to report the incident about 9:10 p.m., said Lt. Robert King, a spokesman for the Portland Police Bureau<\/a>. No one was hurt, but a fire caused some damage to the stairs, which are between two escalators.<\/p>\n

“We’re very fortunate that a larger fire didn’t occur. These devices are completely unpredictable and destructive \u2014 we’re very fortunate that no one was injured,” King said.<\/p>\n

Police have been investigating reports since Oct. 31 that a person or group of people at the downtown Occupy Portland encampment has been making or storing Molotov cocktails, King said. Detectives didn’t release the information to protect their investigation.<\/p>\n

But preliminary information received tonight suggested there was a link between the camp and the makeshift bomb thrown at the World Trade Center, King said.<\/p>\n

Portland police Chief Mike Reese has been notified, and King said Reese was going to inform Mayor Sam Adams of the incident.<\/p>\n

“Molotov cocktails just present this really clear danger to anybody and everybody,” King said. “We’re obviously taking this very seriously.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
