PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Portland Mayor Sam Adams says he won’t implement an arbitrator’s ruling that a police officer fired after he shot an unarmed man in the back in 2010 should be reinstated.

ALBANY, Ore. (AP) — Federal figures show an above-average snowpack for much of Oregon, which is good news for farmers who depend on melting snow to water their crops. Measurements in March were at 124 percent of average in the Willamette Basin and 132 percent on Mount Hood. The report predicts that more water than usual will flow through streams in the western and northern parts of the state. But in Southeastern Oregon, levels were less than half of normal.
