On the evening of January 17, 2019, George Michael Atkeson, 62, was found dead inside a residence in the 5300 block of Northeast 74th Avenue in Portland, Oregon, after police responded to reports of gunfire. An autopsy by the Oregon State Medical Examiner’s Office determined the cause of death to be homicidal violence. A woman found at the scene, Darlene Marie Kelley, sustained injuries, and a dog named Mai Tai was also killed during the incident.

Investigators identified 64-year-old Reza Chehrazi Mardani as a suspect. A grand jury returned a seven-count indictment charging Mardani with murder with a firearm in Atkeson’s death; attempted aggravated murder with a firearm related to the attack on Kelley; assault in the first degree with a firearm; two counts of unlawful use of a weapon with a firearm; and aggravated animal abuse in the first degree and animal abuse in the first degree concerning the dog.

Does anyone who lived in that northeast Portland block in January 2019 have information about the residence or the people involved?
