Revision History

A former employee of Portland's Multnomah Athletic Club drove a rented SUV loaded with propane tanks and pipe bombs through the club's front entrance at 2:49 a.m. on May 2, 2026, causing millions of dollars in damage and dying in the ensuing fire. No other casualties were reported, as the 135-year-old club—the largest private athletic and social club in the United States—was effectively empty at the time, and many of the explosive devices failed to fully detonate.
