On January 30, Eugene Police declared a riot outside the downtown federal building during an anti-ICE protest that was part of a nationwide "National Shutdown" demonstration, part of near-daily protests following the shooting deaths of two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis. Several hundred demonstrators assembled before the situation escalated, with law enforcement ordering dispersal; the FBI later listed three protesters on its most wanted list for alleged property damage, including broken windows, spray-painting and rock-throwing, offering up to $5,000 for information. A similar protest at the same location on January 27 resulted in federal officers detaining at least seven protesters and deploying chemical munitions. On February 20, the city's independent police auditor, Craig Renetzky, released a memo concluding the riot declaration was "reasonable," citing video showing crowds pounding on and breaking windows and federal staff inside with no safe way to exit; the department's Internal Affairs Unit will conduct a separate investigation, and the auditor's review did not examine the conduct of federal officers.
