Shortly after midnight on Tuesday morning, videos captured the moment a makeshift bomb was thrown at the Portland federal courthouse during another night of violent protest. A Trump-loving, 69-year-old woman soon stepped forward to out the suspect publicly as her own grandson.
Karla Fox says she recognized the alleged bomber as her daughters son, 18-year-old Gabriel Rico Agard-Berryhill.
In the hours after the IED attack, social-media users analyzed videos showing a slim male, wearing a distinctive olive vest with the word ICONS printed on it, throwing something over the fence at the Mark O. Hatfield Courthouse. Seconds later, a large explosion erupts, covering the front door in flames. The man picks up something off the ground and sprints off-camera. Police said the concussion could be heard and felt more than a block away.
Fox instantly identified her grandson because she gave him the vest.
I bought the vest for him after he found one online after getting hit with rubber bullets the night before at the protest, Fox told The Post. (She even left a positive review on clothing site Hibbett: I got this for my grandson whos a protester downtown, he uses it every night and says it does the job.) She posted a photo of him posing in the $26 non-bulletproof apparel.
Agard-Berryhill seemed to confess to misguided involvement in the incident in text messages to The Post on Thursday, although he did not confirm he was the bomber.
The device Ive been accused of allegedly throwing was allegedly given to me by an unknown protestor with full face coverings, he wrote. I was allegedly told that it was a strobe firework that wouldnt damage the building or harm anyone around it.

He’s allegedly an alleged baldfaced liar.
PROBATION OFFICER??
” Gabriel Rico Agard-Berryhill”. I wonder how the newly monikered ‘DINGLE’ will make out in jail.
I would worry about the KID AND HIS MOTHER!
Hes not a very good LIAR! But hes. A GREAT BIG LOSER!!
Nothing will happen to him. He’ll take on hero status in Portland.
I wish they would hang him by the neck until dead. Or at least give him some serious time like 99 years. Good for grand ma.
This guy is not the sharpest knife in the drawer. He is an expendable tool. I wonder if he will ever wake up to that fact.
I also wonder if that was his girlfriend with the hairy armpits. Not bad.
Late that same night Agard-Berryhill told his probation officer
I see, already in the system. IOW, a POS. A few things to note here: the double surname, give away lib; a criminal history, they dont assign you a parole officer out of the blue; and a ready made defense in his mind of the use allegedly and given to me.
How about not allegedly hanging him.
For $26, I doubt it was bullet-proof.
Look at his photo in #8. Are his eyebrows tweezed?
Hope granny is armed.
I was allegedly told...
Uh, you were told. Allegedly is used when primary knowledge is not yet proven.
I allegedly ate food yesterday. See? It doesnt work.
Inconceivable!
...and how to use it correctly in a sentence.
What many things happened to him to alter that kids path from being a normal, healthy young man to being a bomb throwing felon?
Actions have consequences.
I pray to God his heart can be healed before hes lost forever.
“my grandma would say. what were you doing there in the first place.”
That’s basic child-rearing and self defense wisdom.
He’ll be the belle with the balls. With those eyebrows and delicate jawline and the sex-hormone binding globulin he’s got a surfeit of that’s going to keep his back smooth and hair-free, he’s going to be very popular.
Thats gonna be a really awkward thanksgiving this year
