“PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — A crew cleaning homeless encampments found human remains in downtown Portland on Tuesday morning, police officials said. Officers responded to a “suspicious priority” call near SW Harvey Milk Street and SW Naito Parkway just after 9:15 a.m. "Anytime human remains are found, our homicide unit will take it seriously. They want to look into this to see how this happened, where it happened," PPB spokesperson Mike Benner said, adding that as of Tuesday afternoon the death has not been ruled a homicide.….”

Get out and vote for Drazen, Oregonians!
Kick Tina Kotex to the curb!
Over 30 years of Demoncrat rule is wrecking the state!
Paper or Plastic?
Any city that has a street named after Harvey Milk, you KNOW is a problem city.
They'll probably charge the perp with an environmental crime instead of murder.
Found in a homeless camp, odds are overdose. Now the one floating in the river? That’s different! POSSIBLY still an overdose, but that’s kinda far from downtown.
Should still be SW Stark Street and Front Avenue. Portland really sucks now, and I say that as a graduate of the high school formerly known as Wilson. Damn all of this politically correct renaming.
Surprised they bothered with the bag.
I’ve been there too many times when my parents lived in Beaverton OR.
My stories are crazy.
I doubt someone went to the waterfront, jumped into a garbage bag and closed it up and killed themselves. /S
Or an accidental death. While closing up an airtight bag they died.
When the original member of the Rolling Stones Brian Jones's body was found floating in a pool the British authorities finally ruled it "Death by Misadventure."
100%
How true.
Portland, much like Seattle, Olympia and most mid to large size west coast cities, has turned from quirky and fun to a festering sh*thole
Sorry. Too soon?
The body in the garbage can was probably a Trump supporter killed by demonic 🐜 Ant-tifa thugs!
Wouldn’t surprise me.
The woman in the river was probably raped and killed by an alien.
Portland is full of demon-crat TRASH, their illegal alien brethren and they’ve pilfering from the taxpayers for decades!
Some "Great Society", eh?
If you would like more information about what’s happening in Oregon, please FReepmail me. Please send me your name by FReepmail if you want to be on this list.
In the UK, that is an accidental death that is caused by personal decisions - like jumping in the pool when you are legally drunk and drug intoxicated.
My guess - there were legal decisions about his estate and life insurance that depended on the cause of death.
I’m sure you’re right.
Drove from my house in Beaverton to Salem yesterday. lots of Drazen signs along I-5. Took the back way home thru St.Paul, beautiful fall day in the heart of the Willamette valley. tons of drazen signs in the farmland. I haven’t seen a single kotek sign anywhere. probably too embarrassed to show their stupidity.
