Authorities in Portland, Ore., responded to 13 shootings in a 28-hour span over the weekend, which left one person dead and three others injured across the city amid a sharp uptick in violent crime.
At one point, officers responded to five shootings in three hours, which "placed a significant strain on resources," authorities said.
After one shooting, a police sergeant was left alone to process the crime scene. At another, officers needed help from nearby residents to help block traffic while they looked for and collected evidence, police said.
