Antifa attacked journalist Andy Ngo at a protest in Portland on Saturday. Ngo, an editor for Quillette, frequently covers the leftist group's rallies and protests.
Ngo shared a video of police asking him questions about the attack and checking his body for wounds. According to Ngo, Antifa protestors hit him in the back of the head multiple times, threw a milkshake at him and stole his GoPro camera.

Ngo took to Twitter to ask for any video or photographic evidence of the attack taking place.

It turns out The Oregonian reporter Jim Ryan got the attack on video:
First skirmish I’ve seen. Didn’t see how this started, but @MrAndyNgo got roughed up. pic.twitter.com/hDkfQchRhG— Jim Ryan (@Jimryan015) June 29, 2019
"Get the f*ck out of here!" one man yelled.
"F*cking owned, b*tch!" another man yelled as Ngo walked away.
Ngo was attacked multiple times on Saturday. Earlier in the day Antifa threw a milkshake at him while filming live on Periscope.

Milkshakes were pretty popular at the event.

Following the protest, the Portland Police department revealed that anyone who was "milkshaked" needed to come forward. Antifa mixed quick-drying cement in the "milkshakes."
Police have received information that some of the milkshakes thrown today during the demonstration contained quick-drying cement. We are encouraging anyone hit with a substance today to report it to police.— Portland Police (@PortlandPolice) June 29, 2019
Before the rally even began, Ngo had a target on his back. He shared a link to Antifa's Facebook event page, showing the group wanted a "physical confrontation" with Ngo. The reason? Ngo has also covered Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys' rallies.
I am nervous about tomorrow’s Portland antifa rally. They’re promising “physical confrontation” & have singled me out to be assaulted. I went on Tucker Carlson last year to explain why I think they’re doing this: They’re seeking meaning through violence. https://t.co/kpkESjsOmI pic.twitter.com/J45MMshyyK— Andy Ngo (@MrAndyNgo) June 28, 2019
Fascist protesting fascism?
He had to stay in the hospital overnight and had "a brain bleed".
I don't know exactly what is meant by that, but yeah.
Surely the leftist assclowns will claim it was “proud boys” dressed like antifa to make them look like the bad guys. And, we all know they’re simply a community service group that wanted to cleanup after the get together. Right?
And Jim Acosta is pissed than he was pushed by the NOKO security detail at the DMZ.
They also STOLE ALL HIS CAMERA EQUIPMENT.
He was ROBBED.
Fascists crushing dissent and crushing documentation that they are crushing dissent. And beating up a Vietnamese-American, no less. Have all the leftards gone insane, or only most of them?
Time for the Justice Department to investigate the collusion between elected Portland officials and its police department to violate the civil rights and bring bodily harm of Mr.Ngo. The Portland police chief should be arrested on a federal warrant.
Corrected. They need to be designated a terrorist organization.
It’s all over Twitter today. The cops, as usual, stood by. How do they look themselves in the mirror?
And where were the police. Oh, forgot, Oregon, a typical communists Democrat piece of crap.

Too bad he didn’t have a gun.
Dude you need to hire about three veterans or maybe three bikers, better yet three veteran bikers. Would not be getting hit in the back of the head by the Antifa chicken shits then!
“Antifa” thugs — just like all fascist bully-boys before them — use violence to try to “dominate” political discussions.
Why?
Because their “ideas” are indefensibly STUPID.
IMO, Antifa thugs should be arrested, IDENTIFIED and have their paymasters exposed.
Is that YOU, Soros?
Is that YOU, Putin?
IMO, thugs with a history of violence should be “quarantined” in a re-education center managed by Sheriff Arpaio. For as long as it takes...
What blanking cowards... too bad Joe Biden isn’t offering to take the thugs out behind the school and teaching these bullies a lesson.
The Portland police will be right on top of this... after their Antifa meeting.
It should be legal to shoot anyone who is acting threatening while wearing a mask.
I guess guns are prohibited. Carry a sharp #2 Ticonderoga and watch John Wick 2 or the proper tactical use of a pencil
How is this different for events in 1950’s south when police stood by and let the Klan beat the hell out of blacks. The left is a bunch of hypocrites.
