A dispute between brothers outside a Northeast Portland hotel on September 25, 2022, ended with the death of 26-year-old Martese Oliver, a Black man from Washington. Police were called to the Howard Johnson in the 8200 block of Northeast Sandy Boulevard around 3:30 a.m. and found Martese suffering from gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The medical examiner ruled his death a homicide by gunshot wound.

Security footage captured a small blue SUV arriving, two people identified as Martese and his identical twin brother Martre Tirik Oliver exiting and having a disturbance, and three flashes consistent with gunshots as the brothers were close together. A neighbor reported hearing a couple of shots and a car speeding away. Investigators located and arrested Martre in Renton, Washington, on September 27, 2022, and he was charged in connection with the killing.

What does anyone who knew Martese or was in that neighborhood that night remember about the incident or the blue SUV?
