The searched followed an investigation that involved the DA’s office, the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office and the Portland Police Bureau.
“That investigation uncovered multiple facts implicating Brower as a serial car thief,” the DA’s office said.
The task force said they found evidence at Brower’s home connecting him to dozens of stolen cars, as well as many stolen car parts.
Brower was booked into the Multnomah County Detention Center. His charges include unauthorized use of a vehicle, possession of a stolen vehicle, felony elude, misdemeanor elude, reckless driving and possession of burglary tools. The DA’s office said the investigation is ongoing and they may be announcing further charges at a later date.
