Original story below:
Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office deputies early Saturday shot and injured a man who had reportedly been firing a gun at windows near a business complex in Troutdale.
Employees in a business near the 25100 block of Southeast Stark were advised to stay down and inside to be safe.
Deputies say they responded with Gresham Police Department officers, arriving on scene shortly after 1:40 a.m. and demanding that the man drop his weapon. A deputy shot the man, who police say was then transported to a nearby hospital with non-life threatening injuries. He was later discharged from the hospital and booked into jail on charges of unlawful use of a weapon and other crimes. No one else was injured.
The deputy who fired his weapon has been placed on paid administrative leave as law enforcement investigate the incident.
Sheriff’s deputies didn’t name the business where the man had been firing a gun. There’s a shopping center in the area that includes several franchise businesses and fast-food restaurants.
