Man beaten by group a t camp
in Southeast Portland
Another incidence of a group beating on a
homeless man occurred last weekend on the
night of Jan. 8, echoing an attack on Dec. 29
when four suspected gang members allegedly
attacked two homeless men.
The latest attack occurred at Southeast 4th
Avenue and Ivon Street. According to the police
report, on Jan. 8, Bruno Arthur Schultz, 51, said
he heard someone outside his camping box and
climbed out to see some guys tagging the wall
next to his box. Schultz confronted them and
they beat him up. There were five to six
suspects, no description. Schultz went back to
sleep after the assault then reported it when he
attended his AA meeting in the morning. Schultz
was transported by ambulance to an area
hospital for treatment for multiple facial
fractures.
There have been no arrests in the case.
Last month, four teenagers were arrested
after beating two homeless individuals in North
Portland. In another attack reported by Street
Roots, rocks were thrown at individuals
experiencing homelessness near St. Francis in
November, injuring a man sleeping outdoors.
