A 26-year-old Keizer man
was arrested after threatening
two Keizer police officers with
a golf club. He later told police
he was attempting to get the
officers to shoot him.
About 2:30 p.m. on Wednes-
day, Oct. 17, KPD officer re-
ceived a report of a man walk-
ing near the intersection of
Lockhaven Drive Northeast
and River Road North who
was yelling at students also
walking through the area. An
officer contacted the man but
decided to back off and not es-
calate the situation because he
was unresponsive and had not
committed a crime.
While the officer broke off
contact, another officer decided
to observe the situation from a
distance. He parked near the in-
tersection of Manzanita Street
Northeast and River Road
North and soon the suspect was
again in view. This time he was
allegedly yelling at vehicles and
making obscene gestures.
The man walked west in to
the McNary Estates subdivision
where the officer lost sight of
him. When the man was locat-
ed again, he was in possession of
a golf club.
“Now that the subject had
armed himself with something
that could be used as a danger-
ous weapon, the officer acti-
vated his overhead emergency
lights, parked his patrol vehicle
and got out where he confront-
ed the subject,” said Deputy
Chief Jeff Kuhns, of KPD.
The man raised the golf club
in a baseball hitter’s stance and
repeatedly called for the officer
to shoot him. The man refused
to comply with orders and be-
gan walking toward the officer
who deployed a Taser while a
cover officer handcuffed him.
“He was trying to provoke
the officers into a suicide-by-
cop situation. Both Keizer PD
officers demonstrated great re-
straint, especially after the sus-
pect armed himself with a golf
club, raised it above his head,
and menaced them,” Kuhns
said.
The man was identified as
Chad David Scott, 26, of Jen-
tif Court in Keizer. He was
arrested and taken to the Mar-
ion County Jail where he was
charged with menacing, unlaw-
ful use of a weapon, disorderly
conduct and theft of the golf
club.

SHOT,

was inside, Hackney locked all
his doors and armed himself
with a .380 caliber handgun.
As he was cleaning his bleed-
ing face, Hackney’s live-in girl-
friend received a text message
from O’Connor’s girlfriend at
1:06 a.m. warning that O’Con-
nor was on his way over and
stated “hope your doors are
locked.”
Simultaneously,
O’Con-
nor began to kick Hackney’s
back door open, broke in, and
came after Hackney inside
the home. Hackney fired one
shot at O’Connor. O’Con-
nor turned and ran back to his
house. Hackney called 9-1-1 at
1:07 a.m. to report that he just
shot at his neighbor.
O’Connor was taken to the
Salem Hospital Emergency
Room by his friends, where he
later died.
Officers and detectives from
the Keizer Police Department,
Salem Police Department, and
Marion County Sheriff ’s Of-
fice responded to the proper-
ties on Cummings Lane and
the Salem Hospital Emergency
Room. Hackney was compli-
ant and cooperative through-
out the investigation. Hackney
voluntarily provided a blood
alcohol breath sample which
revealed a blood alcohol con-
tent of .00 percent.
An autopsy performed by
Dr. Rebecca Millius at the Or-
egon State Medical Examiner’s
Office found that O’Connor
died from a single gunshot
wound to the chest. He also
had injuries to and debris in
the bottom of his foot, consis-
tent with kicking a wood door.
O’Connor’s toxicology reports
were positive for cocaine and
THC, the active ingredient in
marijuana, and his blood alco-
hol level was .23 percent.
The grand jury found that
Hackney was justified in his use
of force because O’Connor had
broken into Hackney’s home
with the intent to commit a
felony or presented a imminent
threat.
