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

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

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.”

Project,
said
they’ve
been looking for ways to
improve fish passage on
the Crooked River for more
than a decade. 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.

BEND (AP) — A
project designed to help
fish populations travel more
effectively is coming to an
Oregon river.
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

conducted a manhunt among
industrial sites as well as

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.”
