The Oregon State Medical Examiner is conducting an autopsy on a 31-year-old man fatally shot last night outside a Southeast Portland strip club.

Robert Edward Ford, Jr., of Southeast Portland, was shot around 11:15 p.m. in the parking lot of the Mystic Gentlemen's Club, located at 9950 Southeast Stark Street.

Police say preliminary information suggests the victim crashed into several cars and what they described as a "party bus" in the club parking lot after being shot.

Witnesses told homicide and gang detectives that a silver vehicle, possibly a Lexus, was involved in the shooting. The vehicle was last seen leaving the lot, heading eastbound on Stark.

A Gresham police officer stopped a similar vehicle with four occupants at 192nd and East Burnside Street. All four people in the car were detained as persons-of-interest, said Sgt. Pete Simpson, a Portland Police spokesman.

Investigators believe that there is no risk to the public at this time, Simpson said.
