Do you know who killed Norman Elias Aguillon in 1993? On August 31, 1993, Norman Elias Aguillon, a 42-year-old Hispanic man, was found fatally stabbed on North Lombard Street in the St. John's neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. Around 1:20 a.m., Portland Police officers discovered Aguillon staggering in the street, severely wounded and covered in blood. Despite efforts by emergency responders, he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Multiple witnesses reported seeing three men attack Aguillon after exiting a dark-colored, heavily dented sedan
from the early 1970s or 80s. A fourth person, described as the driver, remained in the vehicle. The assailants were described as Hispanic males in their mid-twenties, with one wearing a red football jersey. Despite these witness descriptions, no arrests have been made, and the case remains unsolved.
Aguillon was not known to be involved with local gangs, though authorities speculated that his death could be related to drug activity. Portland Police continue to seek information about this case, urging anyone with relevant knowledge to come forward, and Crime Stoppers of Oregon offers a reward for tips that lead to an arrest.
The case remains a significant cold case in Portland, with investigators continuing to pursue leads to provide justice for Aguillon's family.
