In the early morning hours of Wednesday April 24, 2019, the Portland Police Bureau was notified by the Portland FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) of a possible threat to Islamic organizations in Oregon.
As the FBI investigation into the matter was being conducted, an extra police presence was dispatched to a location in Portland, in coordination with the FBI and other Portland area law enforcement.
Once notified by the FBI that JTTF agents and task force members resolved the immediate concerns and determined that there was no known threat to any Islamic center in Oregon, Portland Police officers resumed regular patrol operations.
“We are acutely aware of the horrific and deadly terrorist acts that occurred at houses of worship in Pittsburgh, Christchurch, and Sri Lanka,” said Portland Chief Danielle Outlaw. “We will continue to protect houses of worship and religious community centers. All people deserve to be free from the fear of violence.”

The Portland Police Bureau asks that any community member that becomes aware of threats of violence to contact law enforcement immediately.
The FBI later conceded that there was no actual verifiable threat.
