Portland, OR, July 22, 2026 —
Portland police have provided details on the methods employed by a burglary ring that has been targeting Asian families across Oregon and Washington.
According to law enforcement, the suspects frequently impersonate individuals in legitimate service professions. Common disguises include those of delivery drivers, contractors, or landscapers. To enhance their credibility and avoid suspicion while casing neighborhoods, these individuals reportedly wear attire such as reflective vests and hard hats.
The tactic allows the suspects to appear as if they are performing legitimate work in residential areas, enabling them to scout potential targets without raising immediate alarm. The specific neighborhoods and the timeframe during which these activities have been occurring were not detailed in the information provided by the police.
Further details regarding the number of incidents, arrests made, or specific locations affected were not immediately available.
