Multiple people were killed and an officer was shot and wounded in a domestic violence situation in Oregon, officials said.<\/p>\n
When officers responded to a shooting and domestic disturbance shortly before 4 p.m. Sunday, the officers came under gunfire and returned fire, Sandy Police Chief Patrick Huskey said at a news conference.<\/p>\n
One officer was shot multiple times, Huskey said. The officer has been hospitalized in stable condition and expected to survive, he said.<\/p>\n
Multiple victims are dead, the chief said, but he did not say how many victims or their identities.<\/p>\n
While the suspect was barricaded in the home, police urged residents to lock their doors and stay inside.<\/p>\n
The suspect surrendered around 8 p.m., police said, and the shelter in place order has been lifted.<\/p>\n
The chief called the shooting a “traumatic event for our community.”<\/p>\n
Sandy Mayor Kathleen Walker said in a statement, “Our Sandy community grieves the unimaginable loss of lives from a domestic violence incident. … Please keep our officer, the victims and their loved ones, and everyone in our community in your thoughts.”<\/p>\n
