Portland City Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty, who has pushed for police budget cuts, called 911 after a Lyft driver canceled her ride and asked her to get out of his car. She called 911, telling the operator: “Well, I’ve got a Lyft driver that decided he would just drop me off at a filling station. After Hardesty called 911, Frost made his own 911 call. She told the Portland Tribune that she called 911 because she felt unsafe. After the Portland City Council failed to pass the budget amendment last week, Hardesty called on elected leaders to "move past the fear and stretch ourselves to take the action that is demanded."
