Page 18 The INDEPENDENT, September 7, 2011 Vernonian jailed for attempted murder after firing gun Sally Ann Lee, 57, Vernonia, was arrested August 21, at Lee’s U-Catch Trout Farm on Hwy. 47 S, for attempted mur- der, menacing, assault with a firearm, and reckless endan- gering. Lee’s brother, Tom Lee, called 9-1-1 to report that his sister was intoxicated and shooting a gun. The Columbia County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) responded, along with St. He- lens Police, Clatskanie Police, OSP, Columbia City Police, Washington County Sheriff’s Office, Vernonia Fire Depart- ment and Metro West Ambu- lance. CCSO recovered evidence of at least four shots having been fired from a rifle. Investi- gators believe the situation started as a family squabble re- lating to foreclosure proceed- ings on the house where Sally Lee resides. Lee was arrested without further incident and is currently in the CCSO jail awaiting proceedings.
