give the neighborhood a
much-needed boost, while
others argued it would effec-

“We need to infuse old
town Japantown with activ-
ity,” Commissioner Dan
Saltzman said. “And there
is none there now. We need
people to live there.”
Commissioner Amanda

visibly
shaken as she cast her vote
and called it a sad day.
“I think this is a seri-

Navarrete 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-

Navarrete.

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

spiked again this past Febru-

abducted and murdered two
federal agents in the Pacific
state of Nayarit.
Jalisco state Gov. Aris-

Mexican authorities arrest wife of drug

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. Botello is

Portland City Council plans
to allow taller downtown buildings
PORTLAND (AP) —
The Portland City Coun-
cil plans to give developers
the option of building taller
buildings in the city’s New
Chinatown-Japantown his-
toric district.
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

BRIEFLY
Hotspot found in
area of Columbia
Gorge fire
HOOD RIVER (AP)
— Firefighters are trying
to suppress a flare-up from
last summer’s wildfire in
the scenic Columbia River
Gorge.
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.
Daughters say
Portland man was
stabbed 17 times
PORTLAND
(AP)
— Daughters of a Port-
land stabbing victim say
their father was attacked
after telling a homeless
man not to camp in the
neighborhood.
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. He is
expected to remain in the
hospital.
Police arrested Todd
Schneider on a charge of
first-degree assault, but
have yet to say what led to
the attack or confirm that
Schneider is homeless.
According
court
records, Schneider told
jailers he has no job or sta-
ble income.
