WWL TV is debriefing John Becker, a reporter from its sister station KGW in Portland. Asked how he felt in the city, downtown and uptown, he said "I felt really safe." He talked to a man in the downtown area, who had stayed and was helping to rescue people. "I peppered him with questions about the violence," referring to the media reports. "He said he heard some shots at night," but, the reporter continued, "maybe three or four people, not the roving gangs we've heard about in the media."
