Based on the vehicle
and video information, the
suspects were tentatively
identified.
Umatilla County Un-
dersheriff Jim Littlefield
said around 5:45 p.m. the
same day, the sheriff’s of-
fice had a report of a theft
in progress at Bruce Heat-
ing and Air Conditioning,
off Highway 395 and East
Punkin Center Road.
A witness told a sher-
iff’s deputy they saw a man
and woman stealing metal
from behind the business.
Around 6:40 p.m., Sgt.
Kelly Parsons of the Herm-
iston Police Department
conducted a traffic stop in
the 400 block of South-
east 10th Street on an old-
er Chevrolet S10 pickup
matching the description
from the UCSO incident.
Littlefield said the two
people in the vehicle were
in possession in some of
the stolen items and admit-
ted to stealing them.
The suspects, Jonathan
Price, 35, of Hermiston,
and Maria Martinez, 34,
of Irrigon, were taken into
custody and later charged
and lodged on one count
of second-degree burglary
and one count of first-de-
gree theft.
They will also be
charged with first-degree
theft and criminal mis-
chief, criminal trespass-
ing and second-degree
burglary by the Umatilla
County Sheriff’s Office.
The Umatilla Police De-
partment provided assis-
tance in this investigation

to be staying at a motel in
that city.
Rick Stokoe said a school
staff member had a con-
versation with a parent
Monday morning where
the staff member heard the
parent saying he was going
to “shoot” the school.
As the school was put
on lockout, the police
spoke with the parent, who
told authorities that he had
said he was going to “sue”
the school and not shoot
it. Once police determined
that the school wasn’t un-
der threat, Riverside lifted
the lockout.
Under the lockout pro-
cedure, a school’s outside
doors are locked while
students and staff maintain
normal business.

shore, began to struggle,
went under and did not re-
surface.
Deputies conducted an
initial search, then request-
ed assistance from the Co-
lumbia Basin Dive Rescue
team based in Richland,
Washington.
The dive team found
the man about 8 p.m. The
sheriff’s office also stated it
would not release the iden-
tity of victim until notify-
ing his family.
