PORTLAND, Oregon (KPTV)
” The Portland Police Bureau said 10 people were injured in 10 shootings in the
city in less than 24 hours beginning early Friday morning.

On Friday just before 3 a.m., PPB said a fight between a group of people led to
gunfire at Southeast 128th Avenue and Southeast Sherman Street. Two people were
shot, and one was critically injured.

Less than an hour later, police responded to a shooting at Northeast 92nd Avenue
and Northeast Glisan Street when a homeowner confronted people breaking into a
car. Although several shots were fired at the homeowner, no one was hurt. The
suspects ran away.

Just before 6 a.m. Friday, officers responded near Northeast 21st Avenue and
Northeast Argyle Street. They said a business employee was going to the dumpster
when they discovered someone inside. When the person was asked to leave, a shot
was fired. Police were unable to find the shooter.

Six minutes later, police opened a homicide investigation near North Columbia
Boulevard and North Hendricks Street after officers found a man shot and killed
inside a home. No arrests have been made in the case.

At 12:25 p.m. Friday, PPB responded to a shots fired call at Northeast 104th
Avenue and Northeast Wygant Street. No victims or suspects were found.

At 5:45 p.m. Friday, officers said an argument ended in a shooting at a homeless
camp at North Midway Avenue and North Richards Street. According to police, a
woman was struck by a stray bullet as she exited a tent. She was seriously hurt
but is expected to survive. Another person was shot, taken to the hospital and
released.

Less than twenty minutes later, officers responded to a shots fired disturbance
call at Southeast 71st Avenue and Southeast Lafayette Street. They found
evidence and said a victim showed up later at the hospital.

At 10:49 p.m. Friday, police were called to an area hospital regarding a walk-in
gunshot victim. The victim claims they were robbed at gunpoint and shot in the
arm at Southeast Holgate Boulevard and Southeast 113th Avenue. Police said
investigators have no corroboration at this time.

At 12:20 a.m. Saturday, PPB responded to a shooting at Northeast 11th Avenue
near Woodlawn Park. Officers said it appeared to be an exchange of gunfire on
the sidewalk and street, with over 20 shell casings recovered. A 62-year-old
woman sleeping in her home was hit by a stray bullet. She was taken to the
hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
