Portland, OR – A late-night public safety mission led by the TriMet Transit Police Division on October 29 resulted in 11 arrests and multiple vehicle tows near the Delta Park and Hayden Island area, officials said.
According to the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, the three-hour operation focused on improving safety around the end of the MAX Yellow Line and nearby bus stops, where officers have increased patrols during late-night hours.
Authorities reported two vehicles were towed and over a dozen warrants were served during the mission. The Multnomah County Detention Center’s booking staff also played a key role in processing arrests quickly, allowing patrol officers to return to the field faster.
The Sheriff’s Office extended special recognition to Corrections Deputies Fray, Hill, Mendoza, and Maxwell for their assistance during the operation.
The public safety sweep was part of ongoing efforts to improve rider and community safety across Portland’s public transit network, especially during late-night hours.
