Overview
- Portland police said a man and a woman were found with gunshot wounds after a report of shots around 2:18 p.m. near the 10200 block of Southeast Main Street, then sought help several minutes later near Northeast 146th Avenue and East Burnside.
- Both individuals were transported to a hospital and remained alive, with their names and conditions not publicly released by authorities.
- DHS described the encounter as a targeted vehicle stop and alleged the driver tried to run over agents and that an occupant had Tren de Aragua ties, assertions made without publicly released supporting evidence.
- FBI Portland is leading the investigation after an initial social media post acknowledging CBP involvement was deleted and replaced with statements about an ongoing probe.
- Portland officials, including Mayor Keith Wilson and Oregon’s attorney general, called for transparency and a pause to federal immigration operations as protests formed, a day after a fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis intensified scrutiny of federal enforcement.
