Gladis Mendoza Hernandez, a 42-year-old Hispanic woman, was killed in a drive-by shooting in Portland on the night of July 6, 2022. At about 11:22 p.m. she was standing with two men at East Burnside Street and Northeast 148th Avenue when a car drove past and someone inside opened fire. Officers found Mendoza Hernandez deceased at the scene; an autopsy ruled her death a homicide from a gunshot wound.

Two other people were targeted that night. Brandon Dunn, an adult male, suffered gunshot wounds to his lower extremities and was treated at a local hospital and later released. Ricardo Torres was also fired upon but was not physically harmed. The shooter fled before police arrived and the Portland Police Homicide Unit led the investigation.

Anyone who was in that area that night or who has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
