Rosendo Rivas Flores, a 45-year-old Hispanic man known as a horse breeder and trainer with a rural property in Washington County, was found shot to death in an alley behind an apartment complex on the 4800 block of N. Minnesota Avenue in Portland, Oregon. His body was discovered in the early morning hours of June 12, 1998; investigators determined the cause of death was a gunshot wound.

Witnesses reported hearing a single gunshot near the complex at about 11:07 p.m. the evening before Flores was found. Shortly after, an unidentified African-American man was seen leaving the area; he was described as about 6 feet tall, slender, with short hair. Reports indicate Flores may have been involved in the sale of illegal drugs. No arrests have been announced and the case remains an unsolved cold case; a cash reward and the possibility of anonymity have been offered for information that leads to an arrest.

Did anyone who lived near N. Minnesota Avenue in June 1998 see or hear anything that could help identify the man seen leaving the area?
