A top legislative staffer for Oregon House Speaker Tina Kotek was arrested over the weekend at the Portland riots.

Democrat staffer Kristina Narayan was arrested during the ongoing riots in Portland. Speaker Kotek’s office has not responded to requests for comment. A total of 59 rioters were arrested on Saturday and early Sunday morning. The leftist mob was hurling rocks and molotov cocktails at Portland police.

“Kristina Narayan was arrested for Interfering with a Police Officer after the event became a riot and the crowd was given multiple orders to disperse, which she did not do,” a spokesperson for the Portland police department told Fox News.

Videos posted on social media show police pushing through barricades set up by protesters and arresting people in their path as fireworks explode around them. Portland police said they moved in to extinguish fires in garbage cans and on pallets of wood in the streets.
