The screams of two young children who ended up in the cold Willamette River early Saturday led to a massive search and the arrest of their mother, now accused of killing her 4-year-old son and trying to kill her 7-year-old daughter.
Portland police said 31-year-old Amanda Jo Stott-Smith of suburban Tualatin was taken into custody on the ninth floor of a downtown parking garage around 7 a.m. Saturday.
She threatened to jump off a ledge when officers arrived, said Detective Sgt. Rich Austria of the Portland Police Bureau.
Stott-Smith was facing aggravated murder and attempted aggravated murder charges, Austria said.
