PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A wanted man and a teenager were arrested in Gresham after a Northeast Portland traffic stop turned into a police chase in a stolen SUV early Friday evening. Just before 6 p.m., patrol officers saw a stolen Land Rover Defender driving along Northeast Glisan Street from Northeast 126th Avenue.

Bell and two passengers then abandoned the SUV in the 16300 block of Northeast Wasco Street in Gresham. PPB and Gresham officers established a perimeter, also using drones and a PPB K9 to track them. Although all three were eventually found and taken into custody, one was later released, police said. Additionally, officers recovered one firearm inside the car and another while tracking the suspects. Bell was booked into the Multnomah County Detention Center on charges including unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, attempting to elude police, reckless endangerment, reckless driving, possession of a stolen vehicle, as well as his prior warrants. A 17-year-old boy was booked into the Donald E. Long Juvenile Detention Center on charges of unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of a loaded firearm in public.

Neilston "serial domestic offender" warned to keep nose clean or face jail time
Kevin Gresham has previous convictions of domestic violence on his record. A 'serial domestic offender' has been warned to be of good behaviour or face up to five years in prison after calling his partner a 'stupid b***h'. Boozed-up Kevin Gresham repeatedly shouted and swore at her on December 29 last year after a night out in Glasgow. Gresham – who has previous domestic violence convictions from 2022 and 2023 – got angry when his partner couldn't find her house keys, and made a number of derogatory remarks towards her. A member of the public was so concerned about the thug's behaviour they called the police who arrived and arrested Gresham. The procurator fiscal depute told Paisley Sheriff Court: 'The accused and the woman returned home from Glasgow city centre in a taxi. Both were heavily intoxicated. 'While outside the property, the woman couldn't find her keys and the accused got louder and angrier and began shouting at her. He continued to shout stating, 'you're a f*****g a******e'. Police were contacted by a third party who overheard this disturbance. 'The accused continued to act in an aggressive manner stating, 'you're a stupid b***h, it's your fault again, it's your fault'. Officers attended, arrested the accused and took him to Helen Street police office where he made no reply to caution and charge.' Defence agent Gemma Elder told the court Gresham, of Glen Mark Road in Neilston, appeared in the town's court on December 30 from custody where he pleaded guilty to the offence. He was, at that time, placed on a structure deferred sentence ordering him to attend a social work appointment once per week. Ms Elder stated: 'He has been complying with this and attending a programme designed by East Renfrewshire Council that is akin to the Caledonian men's project. 'It's a programme for domestic offenders and he states to me he has found the initial stages of the programme very helpful.' The court heard the woman wasn't in favour of a non-harassment order being made but Sheriff Eoin McGinty stated he had to consider what the court would find appropriate. Sheriff McGinty also considered Gresham's list of previous offences which include convictions of sexual assault and road traffic matters. He stated: 'This is your third substantial domestic offence so I do feel it is necessary to impose a non-harassment order. 'Not to prevent you from seeing her, but to prevent you from causing her any alarm or distress and, if you breach that, you can be facing a maximum of five years imprisonment. 'This adds an extra layer of protection to your partner as you are a serial offender.' Gresham was ordered to be of good behaviour for six months and a non-harassment order in the terms outlined by Sheriff McGinty was imposed for three years. He will return to court for a hearing on December 15.

VIDEO: Deputy cleared of criminal charges after fatally shooting armed suspect
PORTLAND, Ore. () — Authorities are shedding more light on what led up to a Multnomah County Sheriff's deputy who later died of his injuries during an incident on June 13. The Multnomah County District Attorney's Office announced Deputy Adam Suboh was cleared of any criminal charges for using deadly force against and killing Ladarius Collins in Gresham. Suspect arrested after body found on Hayden Island After an investigation by the East County Major Crimes Team, District Attorney Nathan Vasquez said, 'based upon a review of facts and circumstances, MCSO Deputy Suboh's use of deadly physical force on Friday, June 13, 2025 was justified and, therefore, not criminal under Oregon Law.' He added that any loss of life is deeply felt by the families and communities involved. 'Mr. Collins' death was tragic, and its impact on the family and community cannot be understated. I am deeply sorry for their loss,' Vasquez said. According to the Multnomah County DA's Office and video of the incident that they released, Collins allegedly got into a physical fight with another man in the middle of the street in Gresham, then pulled out a gun and pistol-whipped him and ran away from responding law enforcement officers. Both sheriff's deputies and members of the Gresham Police Department responded to the scene. Collins had allegedly run away from officers through the neighborhood. During this alleged evasion from police, Collins was with a woman associate who was running away with him. The woman was apprehended and later claimed Collins threatened to kill her if she didn't run away with him. Now on his own, Collins was eventually located by Suboh in a driveway. It was then that investigators said Collins allegedly pointed a loaded gun at Suboh, who then shot the suspect. The incident occurred near Northeast 162nd Avenue and Northeast Glisan Street around 7:30 p.m. on June 13. Collins fell to the ground after being shot and law enforcement officers later located a gun, which appeared to be jammed from an attempted firing, the Multnomah County DA's Office said. Collins was later declared dead after medical personnel arrived. A video compilation of some of the officers' body-worn cameras and other surveillance footage documenting the incident was released by the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. However, more relevant video evidence was also collected by the Gresham Police Department, which is in the process of blurring faces and protecting personal identification numbers in the video, as required by law. However, GDP said they will release their video of the evidence within 14 days. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Gresham Hotel profits surge to €6.7m
Newly-filed accounts for the business show that its revenue rose to €27.6m from €23m the previous year. The firm behind the hotel on Dublin's O'Connell Street also paid its parent firm a €5.5m dividend in 2024, up from €3.9m in 2023. Dividends totalling more than €22m have been paid since the Spanish group acquired the property. Riu Hotels and Resorts acquired the Gresham Hotel in 2016 for €92m, after it was put up for sale by Nama. The Gresham had been owned by Precinct Investments, which was controlled by builder Bryan Cullen. Precinct was used in 2004 to take the then stock market-listed Gresham Hotel group private in a €117m deal. Family-owned Riu saw off competition from US private equity giants Apollo and Cerberus to buy the Gresham, which is more than 200 years old. The net book value of the land and buildings owned by the hotel firm last year was €54.5m. The Spanish group has invested a significant amount of money in The Gresham since it bought it, including a renovation project completed last year. The latest accounts show that the hotel, which employs about 280 people, generated €23m of its revenue last year from room sales, up from €18.9m a year earlier. Bar and food sales accounted for €4.1m, compared to €3.7m in 2023. Riu Hotels and Resorts has a significant international footprint, with more than 100 properties worldwide. It's opening its sixth hotel in Cancun, Mexico, this year. It will bring its total number of hotels in Mexico to 23. It's also opening its first property in Thailand. ADVERTISEMENT It also has hotels in locations including the Caribbean, Panama, the Maldives, Spain and the United States. Ireland's biggest hotel operator, Dalata, is currently up for sale with interest in the group having come from bidders such as Norway's Pandox. A number of new hotels are planned for Dublin or under construction. They include the Sofitel Dublin Airport, a 412-room hotel being built beside Terminal 2. The UK's Whitbread group announced during the spring that it will redevelop a site on Dublin's Parkgate Street into a 155-bedroom Premier Inn. It's also starting construction soon on a 100-bedroom hotel on Usher's Quay in the city.
