Summary
Dui Crash Portland Oregon in Portland, Oregon: A 19-year-old driver lost control after exiting northbound I-205 onto Southeast Powell Boulevard in Southeast Portland just before 2 a.m., causing a 1996 BMW 528 sedan to roll over, hit a tree and light pole, crash through a fence into a TriMet parking lot, and land against an unoccupied bus.
