Woman dead inside barricaded SE Portland home; man in custody
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A woman was found dead inside a Southeast Portland home where an armed, barricaded man engaged in a standoff with a heavy police presence for hours. The 'critical incident' began around 6:30 p.m. when police went to the home near SE 170th and Division after a man called to report there was a dead woman inside, PPB said in a release. Because the man — who has not been publicly identified — was believed to be armed, the heavy police response of SERT and Crisis Negotiators was called to the scene. Not long after, officers used flash bangs in 'to breach the front door,' PPB spokesperson Mike Benner said. Once inside, they found the woman, brought her out and declared her dead. At this point it is not clear what the relationship is between the man and the woman. 'Over several hours, tactical teams tried to make contact' with the man who remained barricaded, Benner said, but he refused to comply. Then shortly before 9 p.m., he came out of the house and was taken into custody. Benner said the man was then taken to a hospital for treatment. Police recovered a gun at the scene. Benner confirmed a reverse-911 was used for people living in the area, but that shelter-in-place was lifted. KOIN 6 News will have more information as it develops. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

"Critical incident" that injured 2 under BCA investigation, Moorhead police say
The Moorhead Police Department said two people were injured in a "critical incident" involving its officers Monday night, though the agency declined to say how the injuries occurred. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension added it was at the scene to investigate a "use-of-force incident," but did not say what kind of force was used or by whom. An "active disturbance" brought officers to the 2400 block of Third Avenue North around 8:50 p.m., police said. Eventually, a SWAT team was called in to help. "During the course of the response, officers were involved in a critical incident. No law enforcement personnel were injured, but two other individuals sustained injuries," the Moorhead Police Department said. Police said there is no threat to public safety, but still asked residents to avoid the area while authorities investigate.
