PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN 6) — A protest was held in Northeast Portland by people who wanted to show their solidarity with residents of Ferguson, Missouri, on Thursday.

Organizer Jesse Sponberg posted on the #OpFerguson Facebook page the rally at 5229 NE MLK — Vanport Square — is to support people across the country who have been victims of police brutality.

As of 2:20 p.m., 237 people posted they would be attending. The organizers also want Portland Mayor Charlie Hales and Police Chief Mike Reese to denounce the actions in Ferguson.

Another vigil at Pioneer Courthouse Square will hold a moment of silence for slain, unarmed Missouri teen Mike Brown.
