PORTLAND, Ore. — A man was shot and killed and eight other people were injured in a series of shootings in Portland over a seven-hour period from Saturday night into Sunday morning, the Portland Police Bureau (PPB) reported. ... The other eight victims who were injured had minor or non life-threatening injuries, police said.
The man who died was shot in the Cully Neighborhood on Northeast Killingsworth Street, with officers responding around 3:30 a.m.
A KGW reporting crew saw a group of people gathered outside a home later Sunday morning when they seemingly learned the triple shooting had turned into a homicide investigation. They told the KGW crew to leave.
The medical examiner is still determining the man's cause of death, so his name has not been shared publicly. His death marks the 34th homicide in Portland so far in 2023.
