PORTLAND, Ore. — A man is facing multiple charges, including attempted murder, after shooting one person and injuring two with a knife on May 22, according to the Portland Police Bureau (PPB).
On Wednesday at 8:24 p.m., officers responded to a shooting in the 10400 block of Southeast Clinton Street. When they arrived, they found a man had been shot by the suspect, 29-year-old Tyler Valenzuela Price, who then slashed a neighbor in the hand and "menaced" another neighbor with a knife before fleeing.
Officers found Price, who then fled, stabbing another neighbor in the neck as he ran off, police said.
Officers used a Taser to stop Price, who was arrested and hospitalized; Price had a "suffered what is believed to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the hand" during the incident, PBB said.
Price remained in the hospital under guard until Saturday, when he was booked into the Multnomah County Jail Detention Center and charged with four counts of second-degree attempted murder, three counts of second-degree assault, four counts of an unlawful use of a weapon and two counts of menacing.
The man who was shot had been struck in the shoulder and has been released from the hospital, police said.
The neighbor who had been slashed in the hand denied medical transport and treated the injury on her own. The other neighbor who had been stabbed in the neck was transported to the hospital, and he was treated and released, PPB added.
