Lasalle Jamal Shakier, a 29-year-old Black / African American man, was fatally shot in Portland, Oregon, on the morning of September 9, 2020. The shooting happened around 7 a.m. in the 6600 block of Northeast Columbia Boulevard. Responding officers found Shakier at the scene, and the Oregon State Medical Examiner later ruled the cause of death a gunshot wound and classified it a homicide.

Investigators identified 31-year-old Donald Beckwith as a suspect. On September 18, 2020, members of the United States Marshal’s Service located and arrested Beckwith in Fossil, Oregon; he was booked into the Multnomah County Detention Center. The Multnomah County District Attorney charged Beckwith with murder in the second degree with a firearm and unlawful use of a weapon with a firearm, and court documents state he allegedly unlawfully and intentionally caused Shakier’s death with a firearm. It was reported Beckwith intended to assert self-defense.

If anyone witnessed the shooting or has information about Shakier’s movements that morning, can you help investigators?
