PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — There were flickering candles, green balloons and tears at the vigil for 31-year-old Shaud’e Leigh Hutchison, who was shot to death Tuesday afternoon in Portland.
Her death in an RV near NE Gertz Road and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in the early afternoon was the third of three Portland homicides within 14 hours. The next day, Aaron Rene Garza, 42, was arrested by Portland police for second-degree murder.
