One person is dead after an attempted traffic stop in Northeast Portland late last night.
Port of Portland officers tried to pull over a vehicle near 116th and Prescott. Police say the driver took off, but they did not engage in a chase … instead, tracking the vehicle by radio.
Minutes later, dispatchers got a report of a car fire near Northeast Fremont. Police say that vehicle crashed into a parked car and caught fire. They determined the burning car was the same one officers had tried to pull over.
The driver was thrown from the vehicle and died at the scene.
