PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A 34-year-old man critically wounded by Portland police last December after he came at officers with a machete will get three years’ probation and be supervised through the Multnomah County mental health court.
Marcus Lagozzino pleaded guilty Thursday to fourth-degree assault against his mother and pleaded no contest to menacing a police officer.
The man’s mother called 911 on Dec. 27, saying he had assaulted his parents, was outside breaking windows at their home — and had a machete.
Police tried a stun gun and beanbag shotgun on Lagozzino before Officer Bradley Clark opened fire. A grand jury found no criminal wrongdoing by police.
