Sheriffs looking for I-205 bike path bomber

Buffered Bike Lane with a bike symbol and arrow pointing forward


First, vandals hit the I-205 bike path, making off with metal and copper from light fixtures. Now, someone has set off an improvised explosive device (IED).

From Oregon City News:

Authorities are searching for the person or people responsible for setting off an improvised explosive device (IED) on a bicycle path that runs parallel to I-205 last night.

The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office said the device was ignited on a bike path that runs along the highway near Strawberry Lane on the west side of the highway…”

Potholes are one thing, but this is crazy!

I know a lot of readers use that path regularly. If anyone saw anything, the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office is still trying to find the suspect (or suspects) responsible for this crime.

If you have any information, please contact the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office Tip Line at 503-723-4949.
