Man who was assaulted near Oregon Convention Center MAX station dies from injuries
'The Multnomah County District Attorney's office is actively involved in this investigation and will consider any appropriate criminal charges,' officials said.
Officers responded to the Convention Center's TriMet MAX Station just before 6 a.m. on Thursday and say the area of NE Holladay Street between Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. and Second Avenue was blocked for several hours.
When officers responded, they found a man with serious, life-threatening injuries. He was transported to the hospital, and his current condition is unknown.
The suspect was identified as Jordan T. Christ, 30. He was booked in the Multnomah County Detention Center and charged with second-degree assault — though additional charges are expected.
'The investigation revealed that the assault was a punch to the victim's head and did not involve a weapon. Investigators have no reason to believe that the suspect and the victim knew each other,' police said.
