Police in Portland, Oregon, released photos Tuesday of a suspect who is on the run after allegedly shooting two officers on Monday night.

The Portland Police Bureau said tactical teams are “actively searching” for the individual, described as a Caucasian male in his mid-30’s with facial hair and who was wearing a black baseball cap, a black jacket over a gray hooded sweatshirt, black pants and black shoes.

“This is a stark reminder of the dangers of the job, the jobs that our officers go out every day to serve and protect our community, and we’re grateful for,” Portland Mayor Keith Wilson said during a press conference. “We’re very concerned for the officers that were shot. We’re happy to hear that they are in stable condition, and we wish them a speedy recovery, and we send them our prayers.”    

Investigators said the shooting happened around 8:20 p.m. Monday after police responded to a report of a threat with a weapon call and located the suspect on Northeast Clackamas Street between Northeast 16th Avenue and Northeast 17th Avenue.
