Armed Robbers Wanted By Police

PORTLAND, OR — Police authorities have asked the community to help identify two men suspected of holding up Stan's Market at gunpoint in Northeast Portland Sunday night.

Portland Police Bureau North Precinct officers were dispatched to the reported robbery at 5020 N.E. 82nd Ave. just before 11:45 p.m. June 3. Witnesses at the market reportedly told police the crime was perpetrated by two armed men.

Both men were said to be white.
