Michael Reinoehl, 48, was being investigated for the killing of a President Donald Trump supporter during anti-racism protests in Portland.
Reinoehl said he had acted in self-defence when he shot Aaron Danielson, a member of the Patriot Prayer group.
It is not immediately clear why officers shot Reinoehl.
Some officers were quoted as saying he had pulled a gun.
Black Lives Matter protesters have demonstrated nightly in Portland since the killing of black man George Floyd in May but the city has seen clashes with right-wing groups.
Reinoehl told Vice News that he had thought he and a friend were going to be stabbed by Mr Danielson.
