PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Two suspects believed to be driving a red Lexus that was last seen in Portland are being sought in a Vancouver homicide case, the Clark County Sheriff’s Office said.
The dark red Lexus ES 350 sedan was last seen taking Exit 307 in Portland after traveling south on I-5 from Vancouver, officials said. The vehicle has a shattered rear window, rear-end damage and a broken taillight.
Just before 8 a.m. Sunday, the sheriff’s office said they responded to reports of gunshots in the parking lot of an apartment complex in the 9400 block of NE 19th Avenue in Vancouver.
A man was then found by deputies in the front seat of a vehicle with a gunshot wound. Officials said he did not survive his injuries.
“Witnesses reported that two black males, wearing masks, were seen going back and forth between the victim vehicle and a red Lexus after hearing the shots. The two male suspects then left the parking lot in the Lexus before arriving in Portland via I-5,” the Clark County Sheriff’s Office said in a release.
The suspects in the red Lexus, believed to be in their early 20s, should be considered armed and dangerous and not to be approached, authorities said.
Anyone with information about the incident or who has seen the vehicle matching the description should contact 911.
