According to KOIN News reporter Brent Weisberg, the shooting victim was the only major injury sustained in the incident.

KOIN's Weisberg had this report:

Deputies detained several people at an apartment complex in Beaverton, but (Washington County Sheriff's Office spokesman Sgt. Vance Stimler) said detectives have not confirmed any arrests.

Stimler said the shooting appears to have been a targeted incident. He does not believe the public is in any danger.

"We don't believe that (the shooter) is out there and actively a threat to the public at this time," he said.

Detectives in Washington County are working with the Portland Police Bureau's Gang Enforcement Team because there is possibility the shooting was gang related; however, Stimler said it has not been confirmed the shooting was gang related.

"We've heard evidence that it might be gang related, but we haven’t been able to confirm that at this time," Stimler said.

Detectives believe there was only one shooter, but have not been able to confirm if he received help getting away.

"We don't know if they were able to get into a car and flee," Stimler said. "They initially fled on foot."

Officials confirmed that law enforcement throughout the metro have been advised about the possibility of retaliatory shootings; however, Stimler cautioned and said detectives "don't have anything concrete to actually support" the chance of a revenge shooting.

Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to call 503-629-0111 or 503-823-3333.
