Vancouver Outdoor Expo being investigated for fraud, Clark County officials say

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — More than a week after KOIN 6 News broke the story about vendors accusing the Vancouver Outdoor Expo of leaving them high and dry, the Clark County Sheriff's Office announced on Wednesday that they are investigating the event for fraud allegations.

The three-day event at the Clark County Fairgrounds held earlier this year was billed as "the biggest show in the Northwest" with celebrity guests. However, vendors say they lost money after promises of thousands of attendees did not come to fruition.
