From Milwaukie Police Department press release

Milwaukie Police is looking for a missing endangered adult female that left a Milwaukie residence on November 18, 2009.  The missing person suffers from an injury that requires immediate medical attention.

Police are looking for 22 year old Disiray May Mercado.  She was last seen at 8:00 a.m. on November 19 in the area of OHSU hospital.  She is described as a white female, 5'2", 115 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.  She has a newly pierced tongue and tattoos on her left ankle and left shoulder.

Any information on her whereabouts can be reported to Milwaukie Police at 786-7500, or by calling 911.

Deputies from the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office arrested a man Nov. 16 on a charge after he allegedly invited a woman into his business and then sexually abused her.

According to the police report, an 18-year-old woman called her mother crying hysterically while parked alongside a roadway in Clackamas. Her daughter told her mother she had been invited by the proprietor of a nearby gym to visit his facility on Jannsen Road in Clackamas -- where she reports being sexually abused by this man.

A Clackamas County Sheriff's Patrol Deputy was dispatched to this reported incident and located the 18-year-old female situated in her automobile at an intersection in the Clackamas area. 

The woman told the deputy she met a customer where she works about two weeks prior. She described how this man invited her for a free session at the gym he owned in Clackamas.

New numbers are in from Portland General Electric.

The power company says it has 2,300 customers without power after an overnight storm and most of the customers are in Clackamas County.

Pacific Power reports about 3,500 homes it serves are without power. Most of those homes are in Clatsop County.

She did what she had to do to stay alive. Now deputies have her ex-boyfriend in custody charged with attempted murder and first-degree kidnapping.

Deputies said he took her to a remote area of Clark County, near Battle Ground. But it wasn't until after several scary hours, where the woman got shot at and ended up in gravel pit with her estranged boyfriend.

Deputies said the woman got off work from a Milwaukie sports bar early-Saturday morning when her ex-boyfriend showed up. The woman said he was trying to get them back together.

She said she wasn't having it, so she left. However, he wasn't taking "no" for an answer.
