Portland police arrested three men this weekend as part of its latest crackdown on street racing.

Police said two — Isaiah L. Brown and Noah Y. Terry — are “repeat offenders” who have been arrested on suspicion of reckless driving and other charges already this year.

Brown, 20, is accused of four counts of reckless driving and reckless endangering, as well as driving with a suspended license, in his most recent arrest. He is being held in the Multnomah County Detention Center.

Terry, 21, is accused of single counts of reckless driving and reckless endangering in his most recent arrest. He has been released on his own recognizance.

Josiah J. Pittman, 21, was also arrested. He’s accused of four counts of reckless driving and reckless endangering. He remains in the Multnomah County Detention Center.

5 3 arrested in Portland street-racing operation, police say

Police said officers conducted 12 traffic stops Saturday and Sunday nights in North and Northeast Portland. Two cars were towed as part of the initiative.

The Oregonian/OregonLive reported extensively in 2018 on Portland’s street-racing scene. The events occasionally draw as many as 1,000 spectators, and race participants have been known to block freeways and urban arterials like Marine Drive.
