PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- The man suspected of killing a 39-year-old Portlander at a MAX train stop last week may have fled the country, Portland police said late Monday afternoon.
Moyasar Osman Mohamed-Ahmed was identified by investigators as the suspect in the killing of Sean K. Smeeden around 8:30 p.m. June 27 at the MAX platform near North Interstate Avenue and North Prescott Street. He was already dead by the time officers arrived.
Investigators said there were no TriMet trains or buses in the vicinity when Smeeden was killed.
Detectives said the 29-year-old "fled the area, if not the country," and asked anyone who has seen Mohamed-Ahmed to call 911.
The case continues. Anyone with other information is urged to call Portland police.
