Four Portland State campus public safety officers and two Portland police officers are on administrative leave while an investigation is underway in the death of a man sent to the hospital after being restrained during a welfare check on Thanksgiving night.
Campus public safety officers responded to multiple calls around 8:00 p.m. on Nov. 22 about a man running and yelling in the street near SW 6th Ave. and Mill St. Portland Police were called for backup to restrain the individual, later identified as Richard A. Barry, 52.
Emergency medical personnel were then requested by officers to transport Barry to an area hospital, where medical personnel determined he was deceased.
