On the evening of September 19, 2024, a fatal shooting occurred at a TriMet MAX platform in the Hazelwood neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. Officers from the East Precinct responded to reports of a person shot at Northeast 148th Avenue and East Burnside Street at 7:26 p.m. and found 24-year-old Taysean Nash deceased at the scene. The Medical Examiner determined the cause of death was a homicide by gunshot wound.

Family members remembered Nash as someone who touched many lives, who loved and protected his siblings, and who was very loved by many. Shortly after the shooting a subject was detained; the individual was later identified as 42-year-old Felix Angelo Juarez-Perez and was arrested and lodged in the Multnomah County Detention Center on charges of Murder in the Second Degree and Unlawful Use of a Weapon. Homicide detectives continue to investigate and have asked anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone knew Taysean or saw anything at the MAX platform that night, please share what you know with investigators.
