VANCOUVER, WA -- The Clark County Medical Examiner released the identity Wednesday of a man shot and killed during an April 13th confrontation with deputies. Benjamin Woods, a 41-year-old Prineville man, died of multiple gunshot wounds. 

Authorities say Woods and a female accomplice stole a van in Hazel Dell, Washington on the morning of April 13th. Witnesses reported the male suspect had a handgun. The pair was spotted about 15 minutes later in Salmon Creek where they were reportedly involved in an attempted carjacking. 

When deputies responded, they contacted Woods inside an American Legion. Woods was shot and killed at about 11:30 a.m. during that interaction, although few details of the shooting have been released. The female suspect, later identified as 42-year-old Lyndsey Jones, was arrested several hours later on burglary charges. Her city of residence is unknown. 

The Southwest Washington Independent Investigative Response Team (SWIIRT), led by Vancouver Police, is conducting the investigation into the officer-involved use of force.
