On Monday, a sheriff’s deputy sued the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office and Multnomah County for $10 million, saying that he had suffered serious injuries as a result of an unsafe patrol boat and other subpar working conditions.

Deputy Rodney Nuzum reported that on Nov. 29, 2021, he was getting off the boat at a county-owned dock and boathouse in Northwest Portland when he slipped and fell on a steel-plated ramp, striking his head.
