Central Library Violence

(Portland, OR) -- The President of the Portland Metro Chamber is calling on Multnomah County Chair Jessica Vega Pederson to increase safety at the Multnomah County Library. Two months ago, a person was fatally shot outside of the library and this week, a man leaving the library was stabbed trying to break up a disturbance. The attackers came from inside of the library and had undetected weapons. Andrew Sloan says Vega Pederson has allowed the library to become a hotspot for violence and drug use that's unsafe for employees and visitors. Sloan wants the county to increase security at the library.
