BRIGGS: Violence and vandalism broke out at May Day protests across the country Monday. In Portland, Oregon, dozens arrested as self-described anarchists smashed windows and targeted police officers with incendiary devices, including fireworks, smoke bombs and Molotov cocktails. Police in Seattle say five people were arrested in protests downtown, including a 26-year-old who threw a rock as Trump and anti-Trump demonstrators faced off.</s>ROMANS: In nearby Olympia, Washington, police say the protests turned into what they called a riot with people in the crowd throwing rocks and bottles and using slingshots and pepper spray against police officers. A more peaceful protest in Las Vegas with thousands of union members walking along the strip chanting labor slogans. Protests in New York are also largely peaceful. Police say at least a dozen people were arrested for civil disobedience outside the Park Avenue offices of J.P. Morgan Chase. Why all the protests on May Day? It's also International Workers Day, of course, which has been celebrated on May 1st for more than a century.</s>BRIGGS: Classes and events on the campus of the University of Texas at Austin will resume today following a deadly stabbing spree. One person was killed, three others wounded in the attack. The alleged suspect, 21-year-old Kendrex White, a U.T. student, is in custody. Police say he calmly walked around a campus plaza Monday with a large hunting knife and attacked the four students. Two of the victims were released from the hospital. No word yet on a motive. All right. New numbers from the Pentagon show sex assaults in the military are on the decline. More on that, next.
