Multnomah County sheriff’s deputies were working to recover a body found in the Willamette River just north of the Steel Bridge on Saturday afternoon — the fifth to be found in the river in the past month.

Officials did not confirm an unfounded but widely circulated claim the trucks were stopped for the equivalent of smog testing, which California officials have categorically denied. This post unfortunately leaves room for readers to conflate the two.
