Bob Day

Portland Police Chief Bob Day told reporters the man and woman shot by Border Patrol agents Thursday are hospitalized and in federal custody, adding... They do have some nexus to involvement with TDA.

Chief Day did not provide details of the couple's involvement with the Venezuelan gang Trin de Aragua, other than to say the conclusion was based on a statement this summer from a Venezuelan immigrant shooting victim.

Day also confirmed the driver and passenger, which Homeland Security labels criminal illegal aliens, both have criminal histories.

Violence in our community is devastating.

These are not statistics.

These are human beings.

Portland is not a training ground for militarized agents.

When the administration talks about using full force...

We are seeing what it means on our streets.

We found a male and a female with apparent gunshot wounds.

Officers applied a tourniquet and summoned emergency medical personnel.

The patients were transported to local hospital and their conditions at this time are unknown.
