    Elderly man loses ear during attack on Gresham MAX platform; suspect in custody

    GRESHAM, Ore. (KPTV) - A suspect is in custody after attacking an elderly man on a MAX platform in Gresham early Tuesday morning, according to police.

    At about 2:17 a.m., officers responded to the Cleveland Station at 1200 Northeast 8th Street where two men had been involved in a fight. One of the men attacked the other and assaulted him.

    Police said the victim, a man in his 70s, is missing one of his ears and it appears to have been chewed off his head. The victim’s skull was visible from the wound, according to police.

    The victim was taken to an area hospital for treatment. His current condition is not known.

    Police said the suspect is in custody and they are working on verifying his identity.

    The investigation is ongoing, and no other details have been released at this time.

    What is an elderly dude doing at the Gresham Max stop at 2 AM? I ain't going to any Max stations at 2 AM unless I'm carrying.

    Exactly. First priority should be trying to figure out why there are more crazy people walking the streets of Portland than there are in an episode of Grimm.

    Thats what I wonder too. Maybe he was homeless?

    I can't imagine this happening to my parents (they're both in their late 70's) without me seriously beating the living hell out of the person doing it. Mental illness or not, they wouldn't recognize the person after I was done.

    And? Nothing you can do about it. Same people that complain about gas prices will complain about this.

    Good thing you don't live in Portland, eh? Oh that's right......you live in SoCal where electrical bills can be bigger than house payments........We still live in the land of (comparatively) cheap electricity. Ask my in laws who lived in SF for 40+ years (and now live in Vancouver) how they feel about their current (no pun intended) electric bill, even with the increase.

    Suspect accused of biting off man's ear, chewing face in Gresham thought victim was robot

    PORTLAND, Ore. — A 25-year-old who allegedly bit and chewed off part of another man’s ear and face in Gresham early Tuesday morning told police he thought the victim was "a robot" because of "how he smelled."

    Koryn Daniel Kraemer, 25, has been charged with second-degree assault. He admitted to consuming fentanyl pills, alcohol, and marijuana before the attack, the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office said.

    Police responded shortly after 2 a.m. Tuesday to a 911 call reporting an attack with "a lot of blood" at the Cleveland TriMet Station MAX platform off Northeast 8th Street in Gresham.

    Officers arrived to find Kraemer still on top of the victim, identified as a 78-year-old man from Hillsboro, "gnawing on the side of [his] face."

    Small changes is how it starts. Believe me, energy used to be way less here, but small rate increases here and there just fund fat salaries of the bureaucrats.
