A recent retail theft mission resulted in multiple arrests and the recovery of stolen merchandise and stolen vehicles.

On Wednesday, March 13, 2024, North Precinct personnel conducted another retail theft mission in the areas of Jantzen Beach and Delta Park.

The mission resulted in:

17 Arrests
1 Felony charge
13 Misdemeanor charges
8 Felony warrants
6 Misdemeanor warrants
3 Vehicles Eluded
2 Vehicles towed
$1,900 Recovered stolen property

This week’s mission is one of many retail theft missions conducted by the Portland Police Bureau over the last year. The missions have culminated in hundreds of arrests, firearms seized, stolen cars recovered and stolen merchandise recovered. In many cases, these individuals are involved in criminal activity that extends far beyond retail theft. Therefore, the apprehensions go a long way in improving livability across the area.

These retail theft missions will continue for the foreseeable future in order to deter retail theft and other crimes across Portland.
