Troutdale's First Community Policing Deputy Starts This Week

Multnomah County Sheriff’s Deputy Nick Bohrer is Troutdale’s first Community Resource Deputy. In this new role, Bohrer will work exclusively within the City of Troutdale, connecting with neighborhoods, local businesses and community groups to encourage stronger participation in crime reduction efforts and greater coordination to address crime-related issues.

“Community-based policing builds and maintains community trust and better serves the needs of our neighborhoods,” Multnomah County Sheriff Mike Reese said. “The Sheriff’s Office is committed to implementing preventative and innovative problem-solving methods to reduce crime, while improving the quality of life, and Deputy Bohrer will lead by example in this new role.”

While Bohrer will be able to respond to 911 calls across the county, his primary focus will be serving the City of Troutdale. He will also be available to patrol areas of special concern, whether traffic problems or criminal issues. If you need to contact Deputy Bohrer you can email him at nick.bohrer@troutdaleoregon.gov. 

Bohrer is already familiar with Troutdale. He served as a police officer for the city before joining MCSO in 2015. He joins two patrol deputies already assigned to Troutdale, and former MCSO deputy, Joe Storagee, who recently started as the city’s Code Compliance Officer.
