Trimet Police Activity
Wondering if anyone else has noticed the trimet police activity and knows more about it.
For context: I was riding the blue line east tonight, probably around 630 pm. As we were leaving gateway transit center, there was a noticeable trimet police presence. There were 5-6 officers on the train and they bee-lined to one guy. He looked homeless, down and out, whatever you want to call it.
The trimet police said he was taking up two seats, one with himself and one with his backpack which was against TriMet policy. They id’d him ran his record and took him off the train at 102nd. On 122nd I saw another two trimet officers arresting another, completely different, guy on the platform.
Another person on the train said they had seen something similar, three days prior.
So, what gives? Is this some type of coordinated clean up on the max? Are these isolated, random incidents? Anyone know about this or also witness something similar?
