OFFICERS INVESTIGATE ATTEMPTED CARJACKING
At 1:10 p.m. this afternoon (7/2/20), Tigard Police officers responded to the report of an attempted
carjacking at the Washington Square Mall. A woman reported two young men with a gun tried
taking her car near the JC Penney store, but were unsuccessful. Officers set up containment in the
area and began a K-9 track to search for the suspects. Investigators determined the suspects went
back into the mall through another store, then left the area on a TriMet bus heading for the
Beaverton Transit Center. Despite an extensive search involving partner agencies, officers were not
able to immediately locate the suspects.
The investigation remains ongoing. We'd like to thank our partners at Beaverton Police and King
City Police for their quick assistance today.
