PRINEVILLE, Ore. (KTVZ) – A 77-year-old Prineville-area man was arrested on attempted murder and other charges Wednesday after he allegedly shot and seriously wounded his 35-year-old son, who then fled into the nearby woods, prompting a search, Crook County Sheriff John Gautney said.
Deputies were dispatched around 1:40 p.m. to a home in the 12400 block of Northwest Madras Highway (Highway 26) northwest of Prineville on a report of a trespass in progress, Sheriff John Gautney said.
Before deputies arrived, the call was upgraded to a report of a shooting and they were told the victim had fled into the woods along the property, Gautney said.
