| Portland cops clear deserted shopping center turned drug market |
| 2023-04-16 |
| [NYPOST] Portland police finally cleared out a deserted shopping center in the city’s notoriously empty downtown — a building once described as being straight out of the zombie HBO show "The Last of Us." The center’s owner, Barry Menashe, is working with officials to board up the building and eradicate what The Oregonian called "rampant drug trafficking." The vacant center had become an open-air drug market and was in "crisis mode," the Daily Mail reported. Portland has one of the most deserted downtowns in the United States. Soaring crime rates and homelessness scare away both locals and tourists. Conservative journalist Andy Ngo said the building looked like a scene from the HBO video game adaptation "The Last of Us." Police swooped in early Wednesday, finding evidence of squatters but no people, according to reports. |
