Description
Jan. 19 on The Story: Things are slowly thawing out in the Portland metro area Friday after nearly a week of winter weather, but ice lingers in many spots — especially on neighborhood side streets. And it's not just a nuisance; Multnomah County reported that there were 166 emergency room visits for "slip and fall" injuries on Wednesday, more than it's seen on a single day since 2016. With that in mind, a lot of our viewers have been wondering whose responsibility it is to clear sidewalks, and what the ramifications are for failing to do so. We talked to an attorney to get the scoop.
