OAKLAND — Crews mopped up Oakland’s downtown and parts of Uptown on Friday morning, following a third night of protests opposing the election of Donald Trump.

Although smaller and less chaotic than previous protests, Thursday’s march was marked by dumpster fires and broken windows at two downtown businesses.

Eleven people were arrested and seven cited Thursday night on a variety of suspected crimes, including assault on officers, vandalism, failure to disperse and public intoxication.

One of the people arrested had a cache of Molotov cocktails, Officer Johnna Watson said Friday.

Protesters marched for at least 5 miles in downtown and uptown Oakland while officers surrounded them.

As a police helicopter and news aircraft flew overhead, several hundred protesters railed against President-elect Donald Trump. Around 9:30 p.m., hundreds of protesters began making their way onto Interstate 580 near Telegraph Avenue and formed a human chain to block traffic. They were met by dozens of police officers who ordered them off the freeway.

The restless crowd then headed downtown along Broadway, where there were reports about 10:30 p.m. of windows being smashed and tear gas canisters being deployed outside a Sprouts market to disperse the crowd. Witnesses said multiple protesters had been detained.

Police said at least seven businesses, including an Audi dealership on Broadway, were targeted by protestors and had glass broken and graffiti sprayed on their buildings. A car at the Audi dealership was also vandalized.

Before marching, protesters peacefully gathered at Frank H. Ogawa Plaza. Police impounded a flatbed truck that had been used to lead marchers Wednesday night. Without the truck, protesters were limited to a handheld microphone and a battery-powered speaker to give a line-up of speakers a chance to exhort the crowd.

On Wednesday night, three Oakland police officers were injured and a UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism student was severely beaten by four people who took his camera equipment. Police arrested 30 on Wednesday on charges ranging from assault on an officer to vandalism.
