Coming up in about 10 minutes on KATU, Portland Police spent more than $20k, on chemical riot agents on June 1. That purchase came just days after protests began in Portland. It's the largest single purchase I could find since at least 2017. #LiveOnK2
We requested records going back to 2016, an arbitrary date I chose. We wanted to see how much police spend on chemical and impact munitions. From what I can tell, most of the money went to purchases for training. But we found a couple big, specific purchase orders for June 1.
