From the Crime Stoppers of Oregon website:
The Portland Police Bureau, in cooperation with Crime Stoppers of Oregon, is asking for the public’s help to solve a hit and run that killed a man in North Portland.
On August 30, 2016, at approximately 8:48 p.m., North Precinct and Traffic Division officers responded to the report of a hit and run to a pedestrian.
Officers and medical personnel arrived and located the victim, 65-year-old Stanley Henry Grochowski, suffering from several injuries. Grochowski was transported by ambulance to a Portland hospital for treatment.
On September 9, 2016, Grochowski died as a result of his injuries. This was the 32nd traffic fatality in the City of Portland in 2016.
Officers learned that Grochowski was crossing westbound across North Greeley Avenue, in a crosswalk, when he was struck by the driver of a dark-colored, smaller SUV that was traveling southbound on Greeley. The driver momentarily stopped, and then sped away from the scene.
Based on the investigation, officers believe that the suspect vehicle is a 2008 to 2012 Toyota Rav4, dark-colored with silver trim. A photo of a similar vehicle and a 2011 photo of Grochowski are being released to aid in this investigation.
