Body cam video reveals more about stabbing suspect who died in Portland police custody

While we are still waiting on a toxicology report to understand what caused 43-year-old stabbing suspect Matthew G. Greer’s death, newly released body camera video sheds light on the circumstances around Greer’s death. We want to warn you that the video may be difficult to watch.

It all started two weeks ago, on Dec. 11. Around 10 p.m., Portland police responded to a stabbing call outside of a Plaid Pantry off of North Going Street.

The stabbing victim was taken to the hospital and survived.

Just two blocks away from the scene, a spokesperson for the Portland Police Bureau said a safety support specialist spotted a man on the ground, then did a welfare check and called for police officers.
