On August 4, 2024, Portland Police took 25-year-old Victor D. Ferman Camacho of Vancouver into custody after he ran from police during a street takeover mission in northeast Portland.

Video from PPB’s airplane shows Camacho doing donuts at the intersection of NE 82nd Avenue and NE Fremont Street.

The black Chevrolet Camaro fled the scene, and a short time later, officers used spike strips to flatten the tires.

The video shows the driver and passengers leaving the vehicle on NE Broadway.

Camacho hid in someone’s yard until officers and a K9 located him, and he was taken into custody. He was taken to the Multnomah County Jail on charges of reckless driving, attempt to elude police, speed racing on a highway, and reckless endangering another person. Police say his car was impounded and will be forfeited.
