dents know how to help their com
munity; the department held a
fundraiser on Feb. 5 at Gladstone
Lanes to raise money for the Damon
Coates family relief fund.
The department was able to raise
over $2,600 and counting.

Sergeant Damon Coates was shot
on Jan. 9 during a domestic distur
bance call.
Nicholas Teixeira
allegedly shot Coates in the right side
of the face, while deputies were
responding to the Teixeira home on a
report that a young man was having
“mental problems.” Coates was shot
with a large caliber handgun as he
was patting down the boy. A sher
iff’s deputy returned fire directly
after Coates was shot, resulting in
wounds to Texieira’s chest and left
forearm.
According to the Clackamas
County Sheriff’s press release, the
alleged shooter, Teixeira, was
released from OHSU on Jan. 27 and
moved to an undisclosed medical
facility in the Portland area. Another
press release states that Teixeira was
arraigned on Feb. 3 and charged with
assault one, as well as attempted
aggravated murder.
Coates, 42, is a 16-year veteran
and well-known public information
officer for
Clackamas County.
According to “the Oregonian”
Coates is in fair condition at Legacy
Emanuel. He was removed from
intensive care Jan. 30. It is still too
soon to know the long-term effects
that Coates will have to deal with.
