THE FACTS:

In case 26CR42715:

On May 25, 2026, the defendant was located in the driver’s seat of a stolen vehicle. Police were alerted to the defendant and a passenger by someone who reported them passed out in the vehicle, which was parked in a space reserved for handicapped parking. The defendant woke up as deputies were moving their vehicles to block the stolen vehicle. The defendant rammed into the patrol SUV and several other parked cars while trying to escape, before driving the vehicle through a crowd of at least fifteen people.

The defendant bailed from the vehicle and ran on foot before being arrested by Multnomah County Sheriffs.
