Federal agents shoot man and woman in Portland, city police say

Federal agents in Portland shot two individuals, a man and a woman, near Adventist Health Portland. Authorities claim the shooting occurred during a "targeted vehicle stop" by Border Patrol agents. The agents asserted the passenger, an undocumented immigrant from Venezuela, was involved in a recent shooting and linked to a prostitution ring connected to a designated terrorist organization. DHS stated the driver attempted to run over agents, leading to a defensive shooting. Portland police responded to a separate call about gunshot victims miles away, finding the same man and woman. Mayor Wilson questioned the federal government's account, and local leaders criticized the agents' actions as overreach. Protests ignited in Portland, mirroring reactions to a recent ICE shooting in Minneapolis. Calls are mounting for investigations and the removal of federal agents from Portland. Oregon's governor accused DHS of destroying trust and endangering safety. Police Chief Day urged the community to remain calm amid heightened tensions following the shooting.
