A second night of protests in the US against President-elect Donald Trump has turned violent in Portland, Oregon.
Several thousand demonstrators gathered in the centre of the western city. Some smashed shop and car windows, threw firecrackers and set rubbish alight.
Police declared a riot and arrested 29 people. Protests in other US cities were smaller than on Wednesday.
Mr Trump earlier said in a tweet the demonstrations were unfair and had been incited by the media.
The protesters, mainly young people, say a Trump presidency would create deep divisions along racial and gender lines.
