Roughly a dozen Portland police officers faced off with a small group at a Northeast Portland Fred Meyer on Tuesday after people tried to take food that had been thrown away.
Workers at the Hollywood West Fred Meyer threw away thousands of perishable items because the store, like many others, had lost power in an outage brought on by the region’s winter storm.
Images on social media showed mountains of packaged meat, cheese and juice, as well as whole turkeys and racks of ribs that had been tossed into two large dumpsters near the store.
A few people gathered about 2:30 p.m. at the store, 3030 N.E. Weidler St., in hopes of salvaging the food.
But within a few hours, people seeking food from the dumpsters began to report police officers showing up to guard the dumpsters and prevent people from taking the items.

В связи с отключением электричества, Холл Фудс выкинул портящиеся продукты в дампстер (помойный контейнер), откуда это продовольствие стали вытаскивать местные (бомжи? полубомжи? пенсионеры? просто беднота?). Так потом еще полицию вызвали, что б людям из помойки не досталось продуктов. И это НЕ ЯРОСЛАВЛЬ, как тут постоянно пытаются троллить.
