Flock Camera Alerts Local Law Enforcement To Portland Armed Carjacking Suspects, Sheriff’s Deputies Arrest Two Following White City Elude (Photo) - 02/20/26

JCSO Case 26-0879

 

WHITE CITY, Ore. — The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office (JCSO) arrested two armed carjacking suspects this morning following the theft of a vehicle at gunpoint in Portland. At 8:46 a.m. on Friday, February 20, a Flock License Plate Reader camera alerted JCSO deputies to the stolen vehicle’s presence in the White City area. 

 

Deputies attempted a traffic stop, but the driver failed to yield, leading deputies on a pursuit through the area of White City between Antelope Road and Avenue G. The suspect vehicle crashed into two uninvolved vehicles and was ultimately immobilized on Avenue G near Highway 62. 

 

Three individuals exited the vehicle and fled on foot, but were quickly outperformed and taken into custody. JCSO was assisted in the response by the Eagle Point Police Department and the Oregon State Police (OSP).

 

During the pursuit, a JCSO patrol vehicle was involved in a minor collision with an Eagle Point School District bus. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. OSP is investigating the crash. 

 

JCSO deputies arrested one adult and one juvenile suspect. The adult driver, Jhaywon Damon Brant, 21, of Beaverton, is charged with Attempting to Elude (Vehicle), Attempting to Elude (Foot), Reckless Driving, Recklessly Endangering Another Person, Criminal Mischief II, Providing False Information to a Police Officer, and a Detainer for Parole Violation. The juvenile suspect was lodged in the Jackson County Juvenile Detention facility for a Felony Parole Warrant.

 

The armed robbery is under investigation by the Portland Police Bureau. The local investigation is ongoing. Further information about yesterday’s carjacking may come from the Portland Police Bureau. There is no more information available at this time.
