Bar Patron Arrested After Grabbing a Female’s Groin Without Permission

On Saturday, October 29, 2022, at 10:17 p.m., Washington County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to Toby’s Sports Pub at 10120 SW Hall Blvd in the community of Metzger to a sex abuse call that occurred the previous night. Deputies contacted an adult woman who said she had been inappropriately touched and had her hair pulled the night before by another patron at the bar.

Deputies spoke to the woman and witnesses and viewed surveillance video from the bar on the night of the incident. They determined that the male unwantedly touched the female victim in the groin area and pulled her hair unprovoked.

Deputies learned the male’s name was 46-year-old Darke Hull, a Supervisor at the Portland Police Bureau.

Hull was cited and released on December 15, 2022, for sex abuse in the third degree and harassment.
