The violent Portland suspect accused of threatening to kill a mother and her children before allegedly smashing a police officer in the face with a softball-sized rock was released without bail just the day before.
The Post Millennial can exclusively reveal photos of the Portland suspect accused of smashing an officer in the face with a softball-sized rock earlier this month.
Timothy Lawrence Reed, 35, is accused of breaking into a north Portland home occupied by a mother and her children, threatening to kill the family, and then assaulting a pursuing officer as he tried to evade arrest.
The attack happened around 11:35 p.m. on May 14 when officers responded to a reported burglary in progress in the 3900 block of North Overlook Terrace. A woman called 911 to report that a stranger had entered her home while she and her children were inside.
The woman told 911 that the intruder threatened to kill everyone in the home. Armed with a stick, the woman chased the suspect from the home.
The suspect was located in Overlook Park. Police said he ignored repeated commands and continued running through the neighborhood, prompting a prolonged foot pursuit.
“I’m not afraid of you, pig!” Reed shouted in the police body camera video. “I’ll f*cking kill you!”
As the chase moved north of North Prescott Street, Reed allegedly suddenly turned toward an officer and struck him on the head with a large rock.
