FBI offers reward to help identify people who breached federal building in Eugene

Posted

The FBI announced Friday that is offering a $5,000 reward for information that helps the bureau arrest people who breached the federal building in Eugene late last month.

The bureau also released four videos from inside and outside the entrance to the federal building in an effort to identify those responsible.

The video shows a crowd of people outside the front doors with some people attempting to smash the glass with skateboards or their fists.

Federal officers inside grabbed what appear to be less-lethal launchers and were seen rushing outside, which prompted protesters to rush away from the entrance and scatter.



Eugene police that Friday night, Jan. 30, declared a riot and said windows had been broken at the building, located at 211 E. 7th Ave. The building drew protests in the wake of the fatal shooting of two people in Minneapolis by federal officers days earlier.

The FBI asked that anyone with information contact the agency at fbi.gov/eugeneor.
