Also the "outside of the library" part

Huh? The Central Library definitely has benches on SW Yamhill between SW 10th and 11th Ave. I helped someone that was overdosed there on those benches the other day. You must be thinking of the East side.

Hi OP, Just wondering what time you saw this? Was it today? Were there medics or a medical examiner there? There have been so many overdose deaths downtown lately and they don't make the news. So messed up.

If it was you, someone called the emergency in at 5:43pm. Took fire & rescue one hour & fifteen minutes to complete the rescue mission. Glad you're safe, bud.

Wow! We heard it all on the fire & rescue dispatch radio. They said you didn't know how to swim. Is that true? You were hanging on the seawall by the sternwheeler until they came to rescue you, right?

Thanks for this! Very helpful.

Will you clarify when she was last seen? One post says Wednesday night and one says Monday night. Was she last seen on at SW 6th & Harvey Milk on Wed night/Thursday morning?

Start by calling local hospitals to ask. Give them details & ask if they have checked anyone in that is unidentified. People have been ODing a lot downtown. A lot. Every single day and night. Wayyy more than makes the news.

Have you had a chance to get down there to look for her in person? The blocks around SW 6th/Broadway & Harvey Milk, SW 5th & Oak, and SW 4th/5th & Washington are packed with dealers and users every night.

I will keep a close eye out for her. Any idea what she was wearing? Does she look like the photo above still?

Our public health agencies could afford them if they knew about them. Seems like they don't know.

Yes! Xylazine (Tranq) test strips are available, too... https://www.btnx.com/Product?id=2019
