PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A homeless man took the wedding ring off the finger of a man who died in last week's knife attack aboard a Portland train, city police said Friday.
Police in Portland, Oregon, arrested a homeless man on Friday morning for stealing the wedding ring and backpack of Ricky Best, one of two men fatally stabbed to death last week on a commuter train while defending two women. George Tschaggeny, 51, was arrested at a homeless encampment under an overpass after a tip from an employee of a Domino's Pizza restaurant in the area, Portland Police Bureau officials said at a Friday press conference. Police had released surveillance footage on Thursday of a man carrying Best's backpack leaving the Portland MAX commuter train shortly after the stabbings.
On Virginia’s Tangier Island, about 100 miles and a ferry ride from Washington, the waters of the Chesapeake Bay are edging dangerously close to William Eskridge’s house. The island is under threat from rapid erosion that is being accelerated by rising water scientists believe to be caused by climate change. Tangier Island is wedged between the eastern shore of Maryland and the Virginia coast.
