On Tuesday, 03/02/21, at 8:30pm, West Linn Police were contacted by a citizen over concerns they had about a West Linn Nextdoor post. The caller stated the post referenced a possible abduction attempt, describing the subject as a white male with dark hair who was driving a gold colored mini-van.
On Wednesday, 03/03/21 at about 1:00pm, West Linn Police were contacted by a citizen that recognized the van from the Nextdoor photos. Officers located the van and spoke to Michael SECOR who denied any knowledge of the incident on Tuesday. A short time later, 48 year-old SECOR was taken into custody on a Clackamas County Parole violation warrant and lodged at the Clackamas County Jail.
The West Linn Police Department encourages citizens to contact us immediately, if they feel as though a crime or suspicious activity is occurring.
