Sheriff’s deputy shoots,
injures Boardman man
BOARDMAN — A 26-year-old man was
injured after being shot Friday by a Morrow
County sheriff’s deputy alongside Interstate 84.
Efren Hurtado Jr., 26, of Boardman was
transported to Good Shepherd Medical
Center and later flown to a Portland area
hospital for treatment, according to a
release from Oregon State Police. OSP said
Hurtado’s injuries are considered non-life
threatening and he is in stable condition.
The deputy, whose name is being
withheld during the initial investigation,
stopped at about 1:50 a.m. for a disabled
vehicle on the westbound side of Interstate
84 near exit 164 for Boardman, according
to state police. The deputy encountered
Hurtado, who had a firearm.
“Shots were fired during the encounter,”
state police reported, though it didn’t indicate
whether both people fired.
The Morrow County Sheriff’s Office
reported no one else was around or in the
vehicle with the victim. The officer was not
injured. The name of that officer will be
released as allowed by the Morrow County
District Attorney’s Office, according to the
release from state police.
The sheriff’s office activated the Umatilla/
Morrow County Major Crime Team, and
Oregon State Police along with the Morrow
County District Attorney’s Office are leading
the investigation into the shooting.
Early snow hits the Blue
Mountains
Friday marked the first day of fall, but
some areas of Eastern Oregon are skipping
ahead a season and displaying some early
signs of the winter to come.
On Wednesday, Oregon State Police
responded to a wreck involving a 77-year-old
man who crashed his car into a guard rail and
median while driving westbound on Interstate
84 between Meacham and La Grande after it
started snowing.
Two nearby ski resorts — Bluewood and
Anthony Lakes — posted pictures of the first
snow of the season on their Facebook pages
Tuesday.
Despite these early signs, there are only a
few official indications of September snow.
Zaaron Allen, a science and operations
officer with the National Weather Service in
Pendleton, said the service received a report
from Wallowa County on Wednesday of one
inch of snow at 4,000-foot elevation.
Some snowfall did appear on the service’s
cameras in Tollgate, Allen said.
Although it was the first he was hearing of
the accident on I-84, he wasn’t surprised.
“It doesn’t take a foot of snow to wreak
havoc,” he said.
It also might be premature to try to read
the tea leaves in the late summer snowfall.
Although a La Niña effect in the Pacific
Ocean led to an especially heavy winter for
the Northwest, Allen said there hasn’t been
any strong indications on how strong the
2017-2018 winter will be.
CASCADE LOCKS (AP) — More than
4,000 cut trees remain on a patch of ground
near Oregon’s Ainsworth State Park following
a wildfire that struck the area this summer.
The Oregonian/OregonLive reports
Oregon Department of Transportation
workers have spent nearly two weeks
removing the trees, which were deemed likely
to be a threat to motorists. The trees have
forced the eastbound lanes of Interstate 84 in
the area to remain closed since Sept. 4.

Report: Missing Oregon
mother found alive
EUGENE (AP) — Skinner Butte is getting
a trim.
The Register-Guard reports that work
crews have been clearing away invasive
plants from three sides of the Eugene
landmark, trying to reduce fire danger and
improve wildlife habitat.
During the next three to four weeks, the
thinning of brush and small trees will expand
to parts of 11 acres.
The butte tops out at 682 feet above
sea level. It rises about 240 feet above the
surrounding neighborhood.
City officials plan to leave the north side
untouched by thinning. It faces the Willamette
River and is covered by evergreen trees.
EUGENE (AP) — A Eugene woman
missing since Labor Day weekend has
reportedly been found alive.
The Register-Guard reports the
circumstances surrounding the disappearance
and discovery of 33-year-old Katie Goodright
were not immediately known.
Relatives broke the news Friday on social
media. The Lane County Sheriff’s office said
deputies have not spoken with the mother of
two and could not confirm she’s been located.
Goodright was last seen Sept. 3, when
she left her 6-year-old daughter at a relative’s

The tree removal continued Thursday,
primarily on Shellrock Mountain. But Oregon
Department of Transportation officials say
those threats and others should be minimized
enough by Sunday night or Monday morning
to allow reopening of the eastbound section
between Troutdale and Hood River. The
westbound lanes opened Sept. 14.
