PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s help to identify people involved in an assault east of Portland at Glenn Otto Park near the Sandy River. The Oregonian/OregonLive reports at about 7:36 p.m., deputies responded to a report of an assault in Troutdale and found two men with injuries. The sheriff’s office says a group of people swam across the river, confronted the two men, who are brothers, and violently attacked them. Police say one suspect used a stick in the assault while others punched, kicked and stomped a victim. Police say bias crime charges are possible after an allegation that the suspects used homophobic slurs.
