Fox News
Portland police have released more information about Thursday night’s fatal officer-involved shooting and the events that followed when a mob of protesters took to the city’s streets, where some flattened tires and broke windows on at least one police car in the area, authorities said.
In an updated summary of events, the Portland Police Bureau said early Friday its officers were dispatched just after 7 p.m. Thursday to conduct a welfare check on "a white adult male dressed in all black at a motel." Police did not provide any other information about what led to the shooting other than to say: "After officers arrived with paramedics, they encountered a man matching that description and an officer involved shooting took place." Chief Chuck Lovell said preliminary information suggested the officer "encountered a very difficult and dynamic situation that no officer wants to face."More Related News
