The event he was covering was promoted as "Community Self-Defense Against Proud Boy Attack," by Rose City Antifa. Ngo had tweeted prior to the event that he was nervous about covering it.
"I am nervous about tomorrow's Portland antifa rally. They're promising 'physical confrontation' & have singled me out to be assaulted. I went on Tucker Carlson last year to explain why I think they're doing this: They're seeking meaning through violence," Ngo wrote on the eve of the event.
Rose City Antifa claimed on their website that Ngo had been "participating" in protests that he had simply attended to cover and called for violence against him.
