NORTHWEST East Oregonian Page 2A Tuesday, January 9, 2018 Suspect apprehended in killing of Pierce County deputy FREDERICKSON, Wash. (AP) — Authorities in Washington state have arrested a man believed to have been involved in the fatal shooting of a sheriff’s deputy. Pierce County deputy Daniel McCartney, a 34-year-old Navy veteran and married father to three young boys, was shot during a foot chase late Sunday as he responded to a home inva- sion near the small commu- nity of Frederickson, 15 miles southeast of Tacoma, said sheriff’s spokesman Ed Troyer. One suspect in his mid-30s was found dead at the scene, but another got away, authorities said. On Monday afternoon Troyer said that a 32-year-old man had been taken into custody in the Shelton area on unre- lated felony warrants. A deputy in the area spotted the man who gave a false name when approached, Troyer said. Once authorities learned his real name, Troyer said he was taken to jail on the warrants and further investigation tied the man to the shooting. Two weapons also were found at the scene, Troyer said. Police had closed off Anna Reed/Statesman-Journal via AP Oregon’s first Kid Governor Dom Peters, Oregon’s first Kid Governor and a fifth grader at Willamette Valley Christian School, listens as Secretary of State Dennis Richardson speaks during Dom’s inauguration ceremony at the state Capitol in Salem on Monday. Peters was elected by fifth-graders across the state from a field of eight finalists and his “term” will last one year. “I really hope I can make a difference in Oregon to stop bullying,” Peters said in his inaugural address. Bundy lawyer agrees not to practice in state PORTLAND (AP) — Marcus Mumford, the lawyer who represented Ammon Bundy in the Oregon standoff trial, agreed Monday to no longer handle federal cases in the state. Bundy and six co-de- fendants were acquitted in October 2016 of charges stemming from the armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, a federal bird sanctuary in southeastern Oregon. After the surprising verdict, U.S. marshals tackled Mumford and shocked him with a stun gun as he argued with a judge over whether Bundy should continue to be detained. Mumford was charged with failing to follow a federal officer’s orders and failing to stop resisting arrest. The charges were later dropped, but Oregon chief U.S. District Judge Michael Mosman sought to revoke Mumford’s ability to practice federal cases in Oregon. Mumford initially fought the ban, but acquiesced Monday at a brief hearing AP Photo/Steven DuBois, file In this Oct. 26, 2016 file photo, Utah attorney Mar- cus Mumford, left, stands in front of the federal courthouse in Portland. in Portland. He and his attorney, Matthew Umhofer, declined comment. Mumford faces a bar complaint in his home state of Utah. A formal finding against him in Oregon might have worked against him in Utah, so he volun- tarily agreed to abstain from practicing in a state in which he rarely has a case, said Matthew Schindler, a lawyer who defended one of Bundy’s co-defendants and has vigorously supported Mumford. “I don’t believe that Marcus did anything wrong during the course of the trial that I participated in,” Schindler said outside the courtroom Monday. “But I think that under the circum- stances there’s no question this was the right decision to make.” Bundy retained Mumford less than four months before trial. Mumford quickly made an impression with his combative style and speech impediment — a stutter. He and U.S. District Judge Anna Brown clashed throughout the weeks-long trial, and the tension came to explosive end after the verdicts were read. “What we need far more of in our legal community are Marcus Mumfords,” Schindler said. “We got plenty of people that are nice and polite and are willing to come in and walk their clients into guilty pleas. To me, it’s a privilege to be with somebody who is willing to give whatever it is they’ve got to give.” 211 S.E. Byers Ave., Pendleton 541-276-2211 333 E.

But a lack of funding and disagree- ments over the specific requirements for the fish ladder kept the project from getting off the ground, Pugh said. The water district intends to break ground on the project in April, with the project expected to be complete by the end of next year, Pugh said. “We’re pretty excited about this project finally getting started,” he said.

Construction is set to begin this spring on a 28-foot fish ladder at the Opal Springs Hydroelectric Project near the mouth of the Crooked River, The Bend Bulletin reported . The primary goal of the $10.7 million project is to allow chinook salmon and steelhead in the Deschutes Basin to travel up the Crooked River more effec- tively, reuniting discon- nected fish populations, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Fish Biologist Brett Hodgson said. The ladder will make it possible for fish to move upstream and downstream more freely, said Darek SUBSCRIPTION RATES www.eastoregonian.com roads in the area and conducted a manhunt among industrial sites as well as wooded areas. The suspect was expected to appear in court Tuesday on a first-degree murder charge. Neither suspect’s name has been released. “There’s a sadness that will be felt and should be felt in the community,” said Pierce County Sheriff Paul Pastor. “He is a young deputy who signed up to watch over other people. He had an ethic in his heart for doing something for other people.” McCartney was hired at $10.7M project to help fish travel more effectively Subscriber services: For mail delivery, online access, vacation stops or delivery concerns call 1-800-522-0255 ext. 1 — Founded Oct. 16, 1875 — Joshua Bessex/The News Tribune via AP Officers and medical staff take part in a procession for officer Daniel McCartney, of Yelm, at St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma, Wash., on Monday. 0 8 a.m. 10 a.m. Noon 2 p.m. 4 p.m. 6 p.m. 0-2, Low 3-5, Moderate 6-7, High; 8-10, Very High; 11+, Extreme The higher the AccuWeather.com UV Index™ num- ber, the greater the need for eye and skin protection.
