Sgt. Richard Kelly was found unconscious in his office in August. The drug use that caused it was likely intentional, officials said.

Not mentioned in the title: he was snorting confiscated fent.

Also this is a cop from the town all the Proud Boys who came to Portland in 2020 live in.

Anyway, happy Friday! officer-down

    exact same thought, makes no sense if literally anyone there had any amount of competence. then again, cops are fucking stupid so maybe they just panicked

      Still makes zero sense if you know the area. Even if the cops panicked the paramedics on the scene have a shit ton of experience with opiate overdoses because it’s Battle Ground Washington. Cops could have been complete idiots who thought it was a heart attack in progress even though they claim there were lines of white powder and a rolled up straw but the paramedics would have instantly known what was happening and what to do.
