Man, 22, accused of sexually assaulting multiple women, additional victims sought
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- A 22-year-old man is accused of sexually assaulting multiple women, and Washington County officials believe there may be more victims.
On Friday, Jordan Beyer was indicted on 21 counts relating to sexual abuse, including two counts of rape and four counts of unlawful sexual penetration.
The Washington County Sheriff's Office says they began their investigation into Beyer last month.
"Detectives interviewed multiple women who said they had been raped or sexually assaulted by 22-year-old Jordan Beyer, who most recently has been living in rural Washington County near Banks," WCSO said. "The sexual assaults happened at different locations in Washington County, including in and near Banks, Forest Grove, and Beaverton. Beyer frequently used physical force or threats to assault his victims, who were known to him."
Beyer was arrested Monday during a traffic stop on Hwy 26, according to law enforcement. He was lodged in the Washington County Jail without bail.
Officials say that additional charges are possible as WCSO seeks additional victims.
