Portland police say a man in his 30s was shot multiple times on the sidewalk in the 15000 block of Southeast Division Street early Thursday morning.



Doug Hicks, who lives nearby with his four children, said he heard gunshots at about 2 a.m. Thursday.



Hicks said he heard what sounded like two women arguing. Then he heard screaming and what sounded like a gunshot.



Hicks walked out to the sidewalk on the east side of Division and saw several patrol cars. One of the cars appeared to have a suspect in the rear seat; the victim had been transported to a hospital. His condition remains unknown.



Hicks said police asked him about a vehicle that had been parked on the street near where the shooting occurred.



"I called all my neighbors at 3 o'clock in the morning, woke them up to make sure they were alright," Hicks said.



The Oregonian will continue to update this story.
