PORTLAND, Oregon (KOIN) — The man who found in the parking lot of a motel in northeast Portland over the weekend was discovered by authorities on Tuesday.

The Portland Police Bureau Coroner determined that 25-year-old Donte Mathis died from a gunshot wound.


Just before midnight Saturday, officers responded to a shooting in the 3600 block of Northeast 82nd Avenue. When they arrived, they found a man, later identified as Mathis, dead in the motel parking lot.

All possible suspects had already left the scene before the police were called and no arrests were made, officials say.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Portland Police.
