Portland, Oregon: Officers from East Precinct originally responded to a report of a stolen vehicle tracking to a fast-food restaurant near NE 103rd Ave and NE Weidler Street. Officers located the stolen vehicle in the drive through of the restaurant, and the driver bailed from the car. Officers pursued the suspect into another local restaurant where the suspect went into the kitchen and armed himself with a meat cleaver.

A Taser device was deployed but the suspect fled from the restaurant and carjacked a passing motorist.

Officers located the carjacked vehicle on NE 122nd Ave where the suspect attempted to carjack additional vehicles.

The suspect ran from officers into the neighborhood and made entry into a private home. Officers have the home surrounded and members of the Crisis Negotiation Team are currently in talks with the suspect.
