June 29 2021 Lawsuits seek $1.1 million from Washington County for release of Jeb Brock ahead of fatal Portland police shooting. Washington County officials failed to monitor a parolee or warn others of his dangerous behavior — allowing him to attack a man and a woman before he was killed by Portland police, according to a pair of new lawsuits. Jeb Colin Brock, 42, was high on meth when he stabbed four people in his grandmother's Southeast Portland home before being shot dead by two officers who found him holding a woman hostage at knifepoint around 4:15 a.m. on April 29, 2019, authorities said at the time.
