PORTLAND, Ore. – Violent crime is rising faster in Portland than other parts of the country, but some residents say it seems like police aren't around when they need them.
"It's like they almost disappeared," Loretta Guzman told Fox News.
Guzman owns Bison Coffee House in North Portland, which vandals targeted in early October after advertising Coffee with a Cop. Guzman said she decided to host the event because she heard complaints about safety in the city from her customers over the past couple of years.
"A lot of people feel really unsafe," she said. "They’re angry, they’re sad, they’re mad. They feel helpless. They feel they don’t have a voice."

Violent crime is rising faster in Portland than other parts of the country. But police response times to serious calls are slower than they have been in years.
