MAX stop shooter still at large since July incident
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Authorities are continuing the search for a man suspected of shooting at two people near a MAX platform in unincorporated Clackamas County in late July, the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office announced Tuesday.
The shooting occurred just before 9:30 p.m. July 30 when two men were in the parking lot of the Southeast 82nd Avenue JC Penney -- near the entrance of the Green Line MAX platform -- when the suspect got out of a black Cadillac sedan and shot at the men with a pistol from about 20 yards away, the sheriff's office said.
The suspected gunman --described as a thin white man with curly hair in his early 20s – ran back to the passenger seat of the car, which appeared to have two other people inside, and drove off towards SE Sunnyside Road.
According to the sheriff's office, the suspect and the two men did not know each other.
No injuries were reported after the shooting.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office.
