PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — The Portland Police Bureau's Narcotics and Organized Crime Unit executed a search warrant at a downtown apartment, leading to the arrest of two men and the seizure of drugs, a firearm, and body armor.
On Friday, May 30, around 9:30 a.m., officers served the warrant at an apartment located in the 1400 block of Southwest 12th Avenue.
Reportedly, due to the presence of at least one firearm, the Special Emergency Reaction Team and the Crisis Negotiation Team were deployed.
The operation involved breaching a door, which resulted in noise and broken glass, and police announcements were made over a public address system instructing the apartment's residents to exit.
Inside the apartment, police arrested Uriel Aceves-Leos, 30, of Portland, and Verdell Center, 29.
