Suspect arrested after drive-by shooting in South Portland

One person was arrested after a drive-by shooting in South Portland, Monday morning.

Portland Police officers first responded to a report of shots fired in the 3700 block of SE Van Water Street, near SE 36th Avenue and SE Johnson Creek Boulevard, around 11:20 a.m.

According to investigators, the victim called 911, reporting that their car was hit by gunfire. The victim was not injured and was able to give police a description of the suspect's vehicle.

Officers later found the suspect's vehicle in the parking lot of the 24 Hour Fitness located in the 4500 block of SE McLoughlin Boulevard. Witnesses told police the suspect went inside the gym, discarded something, and then left. Police arrested the suspect, identified as 19-year-old Kordayle ReLa Dorley, as he exited the gym. Officers later recovered a handgun inside the gym.

Dorley was booked into jail on charges of attempted murder, first-degree attempted assault, unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful use of a weapon, and unlawful discharge of a firearm.

Investigators have not released a possible motive in this incident, nor have they said if Dorley knew the victim.

This is tiresome.

From now on in this never ending obfuscation war by Furry, I will try to focus on only posting these statistics each time. Furry believes it’s racist to notice excessive black violence. I contend that problem cannot be addressed by calling people who notice it racist. So I’m going to jam these statistics into the public sphere each and every time the issue arises on either side, and I’ll do it specifically for the geography in question. Forever.

Question:

What are the proportions by race (excluding Latino from White) of the population of Multnomah County compared to the violent crime convictions?

UM Editorial:

Blacks commit crime 337% more often than average in Multnomah County, Oregon.

It is not racist to notice.

Posting lots of white guys getting convicted of violent crime does not make this statistic go away.

(28% violent convictions / 6.4% population) - 1
