Oregon authorities have expanded shellfish harvesting closures along the state’s entire coastline to include razor clams and bay clams, as already high levels of toxins that have contributed to a shellfish poisoning outbreak continue to rise.

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife said the new closures were due to “historic high levels” of a marine biotoxin known as paralytic shellfish poisoning. The move, announced by the department in a news release on Thursday, came after state officials similarly closed the whole coast to mussel harvesting last week.

Agriculture officials have also closed an additional bay on the state’s southern coast to commercial oyster harvesting, bringing the total of such closures to three.

Elevated levels of toxins were first detected in shellfish on the state’s central and north coasts on May 17, fish and wildlife officials said.

"The suspect drives a very unique car, police say: A black or charcoal-colored Subaru WRX sedan with no license plates.

The car has a hood scoop, low profile spoiler with red LED brake light strip, black wheels, and rain deflectors on the doors."

They were tailing me in the left lane. Someone was in front of me. They passed on the right, but had to cut me off to avoid cars on the right that were going slow. Then they tailed the person in front of me. When the person in front of them moved to the right, they slammed on their brakes, got out of their car all puffed up, and started coming at me… instead of continuing on with no one in the left. Which makes no sense at all.

Oh, the roid-road-rage. So pathetic.

Road closures start at 3 AM Saturday morning.

All roads around the Rose Quarter will be closed by 7:45 AM.

Parade runs 10 AM to Noon.

Pamplin. It's Pamplin.

"Officer! Officer! Three guys are chasing me!"

"Ok, what did you do..."

Many Portland area residents who did pay the taxes are having to spend hours on the phone to correct the issue.

The Portland police bike squad recently expanded their patrols to include evenings and weekends, aiming to stop drug dealers in downtown "hotspots."
