SINCE 1979 • VOLUME 38, NO. 15 SECTION A MARCH 25, 2016 $1.00 Bi-Mart shooter arrested after Monday incident KEIZERTIMES/Craig Murphy This handgun was left at the scene of a shooting in the Keizer Bi-Mart parking lot on Monday, March 21. Keizer Police have arrested and charged Kyle Erik Madrid for the shooting. Suspects identified in Goodpaster shooting By CRAIG MURPHY Of the Keizertimes Some surprising information came out recently regarding the murder of Jerrid Goodpaster at Keizer Station. A m o n g those sur- prised? His father, Eric Goodpaster. Jerrid, 28, was fatally shot Calloway in a Keizer Station park- ing lot near Starbucks on Valentine’s Day evening. No arrests have been made yet, but Wilson detectives with the Keizer Police Depart- ment did talk to two persons of interest in Eugene two days af- ter the homicide. Those two were identifi ed recently by The Register-Guard newspaper in Eugene, which got the names and other information from a court document that has since been sealed. The paper named the two suspects as Salem's Timothy Bernard Calloway, 24, and Portland's Diontay Edward Wilson, 26. Calloway and Wilson were arrested in relation to other crimes but were both interviewed in regards to the Goodpaster shooting. “Calloway and Wilson are serving time for unrelated crimes at this time,” KPD deputy chief Jeff Kuhns said on Tuesday. “Nobody, including either of them, has been arrested for or charged with any crimes in relation to the Goodpaster homicide investigation. Our investigation is ongoing to this day.” From the start, KPD offi cials have stressed Goodpaster knew the suspects involved with the shooting and thus the public wasn't in danger. “I have stated many times publicly that we believe we have identifi ed everyone who was present when the homicide occurred,” Kuhns said. Eric Goodpaster said the lack of information the family has gotten from police is frustrating. “We have gotten very little Please see SUSPECTS, Page A6 By CRAIG MURPHY Of the Keizertimes A 31-year-old male was captured in connection with Monday afternoon's shooting in the Keizer Bi-Mart parking lot, minutes after the incident. Jeff Kuhns, deputy chief with the Keizer Police De- partment, announced Tuesday morning Kyle Erik Madrid had been arrested for the shooting of Randall Lynn Anderson, 59. The shooting happened shortly after 1:30 p.m. March 21 in the parking lot in front of the store, located at 3862 River Road North. Medics with the Keizer Fire District immediately transported Anderson to Salem Hospital. A hospital spokesperson on Tuesday said there was no update available on Anderson's condition. Kuhns said the Salem resident survived Koho back to council PAGE A3 Kyle Erik Madrid treatment of serious physical injuries, but gave no other update. At the same time Anderson was being transported, police reported a white male suspect in his early 20s was seen running north along River Road. A few minutes later, offi cer Dave Babcock detained Madrid in JC's Pizzaria at 4200 River Road North as several police cars quickly entered the parking lot. A second potential suspect was detained at the One Stop Easter activities PAGE A5 Please see BI-MART, Page A12 Celtics invade social media By ERIC A. HOWALD Of the Keizertimes A group of McNary High School students has taken on a monumental task this semester: making high school cool in the digital realm. Students in a new digital marketing class have spent the past month creating content for the Celtic presence on Twitter and Facebook through videos, photos and infographics, all of it paving the way for a new website that will soon replace the existing one. “We are trying to get as many people as we can to go online and like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter, but to do that we have to make it as cool as we can,” said Maddysen Vandewalker. Feeding the social network beast and trying to reach all 2,000 students is no small task, and it's paving the way for surprising lessons for the students involved. “It's really fast-paced,” said student Andronick Martusheff. “When we are putting up the news we try to get the most important stuff out there as fast as possible to get people interested.” Vandewalker has discovered just how much editing of fi lm and video she can do on her phone. It's also provided insight into how social networks function well in terms of grabbing attention. “I think a lot more about what I put online, especially on Twitter and Instagram,” said Chloee Calhoun. “I'm more careful about what I put there, but I also try to make it more simple and easy to understand.” Students are given three options when it comes to creating content: they can make a video, create an infographic, or write-up a brief story to accompany a picture. “I like doing the infographics,” Martusheff said. “I started playing around with Photoshop a while ago and liked being able to create my own thing off a blank slate.” Please see INVADE, Page A6 Chainsaw artist PAGE A8 Second homeless meeting in Keizer on March 29 The new Mid-Willamette Homeless Initiative needed a new home.
