Back in 2016 or 2017 I attending some training at Portland Bureau of Transportation yard under the overpass right across from Legacy Emanuel. Well as my crew and I were walking from our truck to the yard the hospital was kicking a woman out.
She was off her rocker and not wanting to leave. She proceeded to remove her shirt and grab a decent size stick/branch and come directly at me screaming bloody murder.
So I had a topless 60ish year old mental patient headed toward me swinging a large stick. I had 2 options run down the street away from her or take my chances with boobs hanging stick lady.
My coworkers had a good laugh but I'd rather run away than be out in the street fighting an older lady suffering from mental illness.
A situation I wouldn't have wanted to use any type of force so fleeing was best option. Sometimes bizarro scenarios instantaneously arise.
It was smart to run . She mighta feasted upon your souls.
