Original Message
Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler is seeking an extra $5million this fall to refund the police by hiring more officers, expanding training and buying more equipment
The city reported 73 murders in 2021 alone - more than its previous record of 66, which was set in 1987 - which is an 83 percent from the start of 2020
The 73rd homicide victim in Portland was Paul David Larson, 35. Cops found his body when responding to a welfare call around 11.30am on October 26
Wheeler's flip-flop decision comes after city leaders cut the police budget by $27m last year -$11m of it was due to the pandemic-induced financial emergency
Portland's police department is currently made up of 130 officers but the mayor wants to increase the force by 300 officers by the start of 2023's fiscal year
