SALEM, Ore. — A Salem police officer was shot multiple times during a traffic stop Tuesday night, and the suspect was arrested Wednesday morning after a lengthy search.
Police in Salem surrounded an apartment complex in the 2600 block of Broadway Street Northeast, and SWAT officers later used an explosive device to blow the door off a unit where investigators believed Jaime L. Jimenez had been holed up, according to the police department. Jimenez, 38, of Woodburn was in custody by about 8:45 a.m.
He faces accusations of attempted aggravated murder, second-degree murder and being a felon in possession of a firearm. A second person in the apartment, Amanda Cayetano, 35, of Salem, also was arrested on suspicion of hindering prosecution.
