Redmond Father & Son Arrested For Monday Shooting

REDMOND, OR -- Redmond Police say a 45-year-old man and his 18-year-old son are now in custody, in connection with a Monday morning shooting. Witnesses reported someone fired several rounds from a black car, as it drove past a house on NW Cedar Ave. A 42-year-old man was taken to the hospital following the incident. Bend Police recovered a black Honda Civic (pictured) near NE First and Greenwood Monday.

Through the investigation, the Major Incident Team identified Mark Johnson and his son Iceton as suspects. The Central Oregon Emergency Response Team (CERT) executed a search warrant on their Redmond home at about 7:30 p.m., 12 hours after the shooting; no one was home at the time. 

At about 10 p.m. a Sheriff's Deputy spotted Mark Johnson's pickup in Sisters and a Black Butte officer used spike strips to stop the truck on Highway 20. Iceton was a passenger who deputies say complied with law enforcement; he was immediately taken into custody.

The driver, identified as Mark Johnson, refused commands and DCSO K9 Ronin helped take him into custody. He was taken by ambulance to the Redmond hospital for treatment before being booked into the jail. 

Both men face charges of Attempted Murder, Assault, Unlawful Use of a Weapon and Recklessly Endangering.
