HILLSBORO, Ore- On January 13, 2025, Michael Aaron Victorio pleaded guilty to robbery in the first degree, unlawful use of a weapon- firearm, and felon in possession of a firearm- firearm minimum. He was sentenced to 140 months in prison by Judge Janelle Wipper. Senior Deputy District Attorney Nadya Martin prosecuted this case.

On October 14, 2023, the defendant stole a handgun from a sporting supply store in Clackamas County. Several hours later, he entered a grocery store in Tigard. He watched as the victim in this case finished his shopping and followed the man out of the store. When the victim got into his car, the defendant opened a door and got into the passenger's seat. He told the victim he had a gun and threatened to shoot him if he didn't get out of the car.

The victim jumped out of the vehicle and the defendant drove off. A witness saw this happen and began following the defendant. Mr. Victorio fired a round out of the vehicle and the witness broke off his pursuit. The victim's car was located the next evening abandoned in a residential neighborhood in Southeast Portland.

Investigators compared surveillance footage from the sporting goods and grocery stores to the defendant's past booking photos and quickly identified him.

The Washington County District Attorney's Office wishes to acknowledge the work of the Tigard Police Department on this case. We also thank the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office for its assistance.

Mr. Victorio will be transferred to the Oregon Department of Corrections to serve his sentence.
