Gresham, Ore.– An early morning domestic violence incident between a man and woman culminated in an officer-involved shooting in the 18700 block of SE Grant St.
The male suspect was pronounced dead at the scene.
At 3:05 a.m. multiple witnesses called 911 to report an active, physical assault involving a man and woman. The first calls originated near the 800 block of SE 190th Ave., with reports that a woman was screaming for help and being forced into a vehicle against her will.
Minutes later, additional witnesses reported seeing the woman screaming and “banging” from inside the car in the 18900 block of SE Grant St., a cul-de-sac approximately 14 blocks south of the original calls.
Two officers located the couple and confronted the 22-year-old suspect. The man was in the roadway when he was shot.
No officers were injured and the current condition of the female victim is not known. No names were released.
