Two incidences
yield same
suspect
On July 4, at approximately 1630
hours, a man approached a female
pedestrian on SW Montgomery
Street near Portland State Univer
sity, and solicited her to be photo
graphed. Detectives believe that

same suspect involved in the sexual
assault o f a female pedestrian in an
incident that occurred in April 2004,
at a parking garage in downtown
Portland. The suspect approached
the women in a similar manner in
both incidents. Both women were
in their late teens.
The suspect is described as a
white male, about 36 years old,
approx. 5’8”, heavy build ("pudgy"
and "pear-shaped”), dark-blonde,
short hair, “crystal” blue eyes,
pointy nose, baby-face with fair
com plexion, clean-shaven, rosy
cheeks and dark teeth. The suspect
wore a T-shirt with thick stripes,
Khaki cargo-style shorts, sneakers
and gym socks.
At the time of the July 4th inci
dent, the suspect was last seen
driving a white 4-door sedan, older

Auto Group Hit on Misleading Ads
For the second time in fouryears,
Mtomey General Hardy Myers has
"lied a court action against the
rhomason Auto Group, one of the
d a te ’s la rg e st
a u to m o b ile
iealerships, for misleading adver-
ising and for circumventing the
state’s anti-bushing laws.
In the earlier case, Oregon De
partment of Justice staff found that
he dealership advertised car sales
ihrough “spot” ads in the classi
fied sections o f many newspapers
and sold them to unsuspecting
buyers for thousands more than
the advertised price.
In March 2(M)4, the Thomason
Honda dealership in Gladstone
advertised an offer in large, bold
printof“35 PERCENTOFF MSRP
(M anufacturer’s Suggested Retail
Price) ON ALL HONDAS IN
STOCK!!” In very small type above
the offer, the dealership posted
“ D ealer Installed O ptions Dis
counted.”
The offer was clearly mislead
ing, as the dealership soon discov
ered, as large numbers of angry
customers arrived to buy a new
Honda at a 35 percent reduction,
only to find the discount was for
dealer installed options. The deal
ership closed its doors early that
day and remained closed the next
day. More than 30 consumers filed
complaints with Justice concern
ing the alleged fraudulent advertis
ing.
