"Journalist Katie Daviscourt appeared on Fox News with a black eye on Wednesday after she was assaulted by a masked Antifa-affiliated protester in Portland. Wow, that is quite a shiner. Are you all right? asked Fox News host Jesse Watters. Oh yeah, I definitely have a black eye, she replied. That's what it's been like covering Portland for the past four months. Complete lawlessness."
"Last night, I got assaulted and I immediately ran to a Portland Police officer, hunted down the suspect, chased her through the streets and said, This is my assault suspect, can you guys finally do something? and I had eyes on her for about 35 minutes Portland Police refused to come in and make an arrest and I had three officers just standing there, watching me try to hunt down the suspect."
Katie Daviscourt sustained a black eye after being assaulted by a masked Antifa-affiliated protester while reporting in Portland. She says several city blocks are controlled by Antifa-affiliated protesters who harass, assault, and threaten journalists, residents, and ICE agents, while local police refuse to enforce order. Daviscourt reported chasing her assault suspect and having officers refuse to arrest despite her identifying the individual, and later saw police issue a BOLO seeking public help to identify the same suspect. Daviscourt endorsed federal troop deployment and called for a federal crackdown, equating Antifa with ISIS. She said she was struck in the face with a flag pole.
