Today, Multnomah District Attorney Rod Underhill announced that a four-count charging document was filed in State of Oregon v. Angel Granados-Diaz.

Granados-Diaz, 19, a Parkrose High School student, is charged with two counts of possessing a firearm or dangerous weapon inside a public building, one count of being in possession of a loaded firearm in public and one count of recklessly endangering.

In court documents, it is alleged that Granados-Diaz, did unlawfully and intentionally possess a loaded firearm while inside Parkrose High School, a public building. It is further alleged that Granados-Diaz knowingly, and with reckless disregard for the safety of others, attempted to discharge the firearm inside the school. Additionally, it is alleged that Granados-Diaz did unlawfully and recklessly create a substantial risk of serious physical injury to another person.

On May 17, 2019, members of the Portland Police Bureau along with other local, state and federal law enforcement agencies responded to Parkrose High School after receiving information about a person on campus with a firearm, according to information previously released by the Portland Police Bureau. Law enforcement arrived and located an individual, later identified as Granados-Diaz.

Granados-Diaz was taken into custody without incident.

The Portland Police Bureau previously released a photo of the loaded shotgun that was allegedly in Granados-Diaz’ possession while on campus.

There is no probable cause affidavit filed in this case. A probable cause waiver was filed on May 20, 2019.

Today, Granados-Diaz appeared before Judge Michael C. Zusman in Multnomah County Circuit Court. His next court date is scheduled for May 29, 2019.

On May 17, 2019, Multnomah County Circuit Court Judge Amy Holmes-Hehn signed an order to increase Granados-Diaz’ bail to $500,000.

A charging document is only an accusation of a crime. Granados-Diaz is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

No additional information can be released by the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office at this time.
