Investigators began looking into Gabriel Rodriguez-Lee months ago, Portland police said. He was arrested in October 2023 for a large OMEGA tag in North Portland and having a gun. He pleaded guilty to the gun charge and was put on a year probation in November.
Early Tuesday, authorities used the search warrant at his home near NE 11th and Skidmore and allegedly found "hundreds of iterations of the OMEGA tag."
Rodriguez-Lee now faces eight felony counts of first-degree criminal mischief plus a misdemeanor criminal mischief charge.
