We need people to live there.” Commissioner Amanda Fritz appeared visibly shaken as she cast her vote and called it a sad day. “I think this is a seri- ous mistake that is going to repeat the mistakes that previous councils made in Albina, destroying a historic district and a cultural dis- trict,” she said.

Saturday’s arrests are part of the “siege” on El Mencho, said Alejandro Hope, a Mex- ican security expert. “They have been hunting him with greater intensity since the end of last year.” Navarrete declined to speculate on whether gov- ernment agents were close to detaining the cartel leader. But he said he hopes to soon have news. “I once heard that they arrived at a place and that he had just left because the cof- fee was still steaming,” said Navarrete. Jalisco New Generation has a reputation for battling with government agents.

The cartel brazenly shot down a Mexican military helicopter with a rocket launcher in 2015, prompting Mexican officials to declare an all-out offensive against the criminal group. Tensions spiked again this past Febru- ary, after the cartel allegedly abducted and murdered two federal agents in the Pacific state of Nayarit. Jalisco state Gov. Aris- toteles Sandoval said ear- lier Sunday that the state is “calm” amid stepped-up security.

Mexican authorities arrest wife of drug kingpin, wanted for murder in Oregon MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican authorities have arrested the wife of the leader of Jalisco New Generation, one of the country’s fiercest drug cartels, as well as a top lieutenant for the organiza- tion, setting the western state of Jalisco on high alert for possible reprisals. Interior Minister Alfonso Navarrete said at a Sun- day press conference that marines took into custody Rosalinda Gonzalez Valen- cia, the wife of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as “El Mencho,” the night before in the city of Zapo- pan. Gonzalez is accused of managing the cartel’s finances. At the same location, the marines also captured Gerardo Botello Rosales, aka “El Cachas,” who is believed to run the cartel’s operations in the states of Guanajuato and Michoacan.

The plan includes new height and design guide- lines intended to preserve the character of the historic district, which is the state’s largest Chinatown commu- nity, Oregon Public Broad- casting reported. The council previously had indicated it would set heights at 160 feet for much of the neighborhood. But the council voted last week to alow buildings up to 200 feet in two different places. The vote divided the council, with Mayor Ted -0s hubs for illicit substances in Los Angeles, New York and Atlanta.

U.S. Forest Service spokeswoman Rachel Pawlitz says a glow from the small hotspot was reported Tuesday about a half-mile east of the Her- man Creek Trailhead. It was found smoldering in heavy downed timber. Pawlitz says the discov- ery was not a big surprise. Though the fire was con- tained in late November, it has not been declared out. She says hotspots are one reason trails remain closed six months after the blaze was contained. Blake Painter, ‘Deadliest Catch’ skipper, found dead in home ASTORIA (AP) — Blake Painter, a fisher- man featured on the televi- sion series “The Deadliest Catch,” has died. He was 38. Clatsop County Sher- iff Tom Bergin said Tues- day Painter had been found in his Astoria home May 25 by a friend who visited after being unable to reach him. Bergin said a cause of death would not be released until a toxicology report had been completed, but there was no apparent evidence of foul play.

Shawna Lebechuck and Kayla McNeel say their father, Kasey Lebechuck, was stabbed 17 times. McNeel says her father was stabbed in the lungs, stomach, back, mouth, eye and back of head.
