Ice storm death toll rises in Pacific Northwest as power lines fall
A downed power line in northeast Portland during an ice storm killed three people and injured a baby. The line fell after a branch touched it, with victims found beside an SUV as officials deenergized the line. Ice coated roads, prompting road closures, flight delays, and school cancellations across Oregon and Washington.
