In the late morning of December 21, 2022, 57-year-old Abed Fattoum was shot at the intersection of Southeast 9th Avenue and Southeast Market Street in Portland’s Hosford-Abernethy neighborhood. Officers arrived about 10:52 a.m., found him injured and rendered aid, including applying a chest seal. He was transported to a hospital and later died; the Medical Examiner ruled his death a homicide from a gunshot wound.

Portland Police Bureau Homicide detectives closed surrounding streets and investigated. On December 22, 2022, 38-year-old Kailen R. Guffey was arrested and booked into Multnomah County jail on multiple charges including second-degree murder with a firearm and first-degree robbery with a firearm. Detectives kept developing leads and, on January 10, 2023, with assistance from the U.S. Marshals Service, they located and arrested 26-year-old Bonscott J. Skinner; he was booked on second-degree murder, first-degree robbery and first-degree burglary and was found in possession of a loaded firearm and a stolen vehicle.

Anyone with information about Abed Fattoum, the shooting, or either arrest is asked to come forward.
