News Release
Suspect Arrested in Connection to June 1st Shooting Investigation - 07/18/18

On Tuesday, July 17, 2018, members of the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office and Portland Police Bureau Gang Enforcement Team arrested 45-year-old Alexander J. Walton near East Cascade Avenue and North Fir Street in Sisters, Oregon on a warrant for Attempt Murder.

The warrant came as a result of an investigation into a shooting that occurred on the evening of Friday, June 1, 2018, outside of Darcy's Bar, located at 4804 North Lombard Street. When officers arrived they located an adult male with a gunshot wound. The man was transported by ambulance to a Portland hospital where he received treatment and was eventually released.

During the course of the investigation, detectives learned Walton was connected to the shooting. Portland Police Bureau Gang Enforcement Detectives worked with the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office to take Walton into custody on Tuesday.

Walton was booked into the Deschutes County Jail on the warrant for Attempt Murder and will be transported to the Multnomah County Jail at a later date.

Anyone who witnessed, possesses video surveillance footage of, or knowledge of Walton's connection to the shooting is asked to call Detective Bryan Declercque at 503-823-2056 or Bryan.Declercque@portlandoregon.gov
