News Release

Detectives Investigating Shooting At Rural Hillsboro Property (Photo) - 03/30/26

On Saturday, March 28, 2026, at 11:23 p.m., Washington County Sheriff’s Office deputies were dispatched to a report of a large party on a rural property in the 15200 block of SW Holly Hill Road in unincorporated Hillsboro. Multiple people called into dispatch to report a large gathering of juveniles who were reportedly consuming alcohol. Initial calls estimated that there were between 100-200 people at the party.

 

While deputies were enroute, additional callers reported that some of the partygoers were armed with guns. As a deputy arrived at the property, he heard shots being fired. Additional calls to 911 reported that at least two people were shot.

 

Due to the terrain of the area, the large gathering, and the shooting, deputies called for additional resources from partner agencies. Multiple people were detained as deputies and officers worked through a very active scene. The two people who were shot were transported via ambulance and have non-life-threatening injuries.

 

Detectives from the Sheriff’s Office Violent Crimes Unit and the Washington County Major Crimes Team responded to lead the investigation. An explosives detection K9 from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms was called in to assist with the search. K9 Moby located a pistol near the scene.

 

Investigators identified two people who were detained by initial responders as being involved in the shooting. According to the Washington County Juvenile Department, a 16-year-old boy and a 17-year-old boy were detained in connection with the shooting.

 

The investigation is ongoing, and additional information is not available for release. The sheriff’s office would like to thank the following agencies for their assistance during this investigation:

  • Beaverton Police Department
  • Cornelius Police Department
  • Forest Grove Police Department
  • Hillsboro Police Department
  • Sherwood Police Department
  • Tigard Police Department
  • Oregon State Police
  • Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms

Detectives believe that there are other partygoers who fled the scene prior to law enforcement arriving, and they would like to hear from those individuals. Anyone with information is asked to call the Investigations Division at 503-846-2500 referencing 50-26-4267.
