Chauvin was ultimately found guilty of killing George Floyd.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Democrat extended a state of emergency in Portland through Monday amid concerns about potential unrest following the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer found guilty on all charges for the death of George Floyd. The Portland mayor asked the public to come forward with any information on members of the anarchist group,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/portland-mayor-asks-public-help-unmask-members-self-described-anarchist-mob\">Fox News added on Sunday<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe city is beginning to recover, but self-described anarchists who engage in regular criminal destruction don\u2019t want things to open up, to recover,\u201d Wheeler told Portland residents. \u201cThey want to prevent us from doing the work of making a better Portland for everyone. They want to burn, they want to bash.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wheeler who, back in June, pledged to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oregonlive.com\/portland\/2020\/06\/defund-portland-police-units-to-reinvest-in-communities-of-color-among-citys-reform-plans-mayor-says.html\"> divert millions from Portland law enforcement<\/a> amid calls to \u201cdefund the police\u201d (a position <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oregonlive.com\/crime\/2021\/03\/mayor-ted-wheeler-seeks-2-million-to-bring-back-uniformed-police-team-to-address-spike-in-shootings.html\">he reversed in March<\/a>) said on Friday that he supports Portland police using all \u00a0\u201clegal strategies\u201d to handle the riots, including the controversial \u201ckettling\u201d maneuver, which has police routing protesters into a small area, allowing them out one by one after being processed and searched.<\/p>\n<p>Wheeler said that Black Lives Matter has already stepped forward to denounce the destruction, and he is now asking Portland residents to turn in friends and neighbors they believe might be part of the \u201cself-described anarchist mob\u201d to authorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur job is to unmask them, arrest them and prosecute them,\u201d he said, \u201d asking the public to contact the police and provide them with information about the rioters, write down their license plate numbers or film them when they commit acts of vandalism,\u201d per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/nation\/2021\/04\/24\/ted-wheeler-portland-protests\/\">Washington Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTogether we can make a stand,\u201d Wheeler added. \u201cWe\u2019re doing what we can today.
