Woman arrested after alleged stabbing, robbery incidents near Moda Center
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- A woman was arrested for allegedly stabbing a man, then threatening and robbing a couple of their sleeping bag near the Moda Center Saturday morning.
Just before 11 a.m., officers responded to reports of a stabbing at North Williams Avenue and Northeast Multnomah Street.
When they arrived, officers say they found out a man who was stabbed had walked off the scene and began searching for a possible suspect.
Two people who had camped out in the area ahead of Sunday's Billie Eilish concert came forward and reportedly told officers the suspect had threatened them with a knife and demanded their sleeping bag.
Officers soon located the suspect, identified as 52-year-old Angelique Butler. Police said she had stolen items from each of the victims as well as a large knife.
Butler was taken into custody on charges of second-degree robbery, menacing, unlawful use of a weapon and disorderly conduct.
Officers could not find the alleged stabbing victim and his condition is unknown at this time.
