(PM.) A TikTok star became the most recent victim of attacks carried out by Portland Antifa when a mob dressed in all black attacked her family’s vehicle on Monday as they were driving home from Fourth of July celebrations.
Hailee Lautenbach posted a video of the incident to her TikTok account, which has since amassed over 3.5 million views.
The harrowing video shows dozens of black bloc Antifa approach the family’s vehicle after they were forced to come to an abrupt stop due to the extremist group taking over the roadways in downtown Portland for an Independence Day protest.
“Are they peaceful?” Lautenbach asked, as the mob of Antifa approached the vehicle, according to the video.
Within seconds of asking that question, an Antifa militant jumped on the hood of their car and smashed the front windshield with their boot, breaking the glass.
“Oh my God,” Lautenbach gasped. “Stay in the car, stay in the car.”

One of the extremists in the group followed shortly behind and took a photo of Hailee and her family, a common tactic that Antifa uses to doxx their victims.
Frustrated with the Portland Police Bureau’s inability to respond due to the department’s ongoing staffing crisis and the city’s increase in crime following the “defund the police movement,” Lautenbach called out elected officials on Twitter and said, “Are you going to do anything about this, cause the cops sure just said ‘we know there’s a lot happening out there, stay safe.'”

The incident happened as Portland Antifa spent the evening smashing windows to businesses, assaulting bystanders, setting fires, and vandalizing property, according to The Post Millennial editor-at-large Andy Ngo.
“To take advantage of July 4th, #Antifa carried through on a preplanned riot. They tried to set the federal courthouse on fire then smashed up businesses and cars in a rampage. They assaulted people as many were in downtown for the fireworks show. Police made no arrests,” Ngo reported on Tuesday.
