Carl Gibb Jr., 44, was found dead on a Portland sidewalk shortly before 7 a.m. on July 9, 1990. His body lay next to a shopping cart on North Williams Avenue just north of North Failing Street. An autopsy determined the cause of death was stab wounds and investigators estimated he died around 1:00 a.m. that morning.

Gibb was known locally for collecting cans and other items in a shopping cart and was reported to have had a mental disability. He was divorced and the father of two young children. When officers arrived, a puppy and a kitten were found with him.

A witness said two African-American men had been seen speaking with Gibb near where his body was later found, shortly before 1 a.m.; both were described as about 6 feet tall and aged 25 to 30, one wearing a black baseball cap, a black jacket and blue jeans, the other in dark jeans and a dark jacket. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

If anyone knew Carl, his movements that night, or saw those two men, please share what is known.
