Bend Man Sentenced For April Shooting

BEND, OR -- A 24-year-old Bend man was sentenced to more than eight years in prison for shooting two people as they walked by his home at 15th and Newport, last April. Walker Owen Henneke was convicted on two counts of assault in the first degree and one count of unlawful use of a weapon. 

 

He was apparently upset by a group making noise as they walked by his house. Henneke and his roommate got into a fight with the group, April 24, 2016. Prosecutors say Henneke then retrieved his semi automatic rifle from inside the house and sprayed the scene with bullets, seriously injuring two people. 
 
He was sentenced this week to 100 months in prison and ordered to pay $35,000 in restitution.
