Suspects Arrested in Downtown Madras Shooting
Date: November 3, 2022 – Immediate Release
Contact: Detective Sgt. Steve Webb, Madras Police Department 541-475-2424
Madras, OR – At approximately 1:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 29, 2022, officers from Madras Police Department and deputies from Jefferson County Sheriff’s office responded to a call of shots being fired near SE “C” and 5th Streets in Downtown Madras. Upon arrival, officers found a parked vehicle that had been struck by several bullets. There were two people in the vehicle at the time it was struck, but thankfully, no one was injured in the incident.
Officers recovered ammunition casings at the site and during their subsequent investigation, obtained video evidence from several downtown businesses. The video evidence helped officers identify three suspects. Over the next several days officers located, interviewed, and arrested two adults and one juvenile for conspiracy to commit aggravated murder. The two adult suspects, 30-year-old Ivan Felix of Madras and 28-year-old Heli Vivanco of Metolius were charged with conspiracy to commit aggravated murder and lodged at Jefferson County Jail. The juvenile, a 14-year-old Metolius resident, was lodged at the Deschutes County Juvenile Detention Center on charges of attempted murder.
“These arrests were expedited in part due to the video footage we were able to obtain from Downtown businesses. Surveillance cameras are a valuable asset for both businesses and public safety. We strongly encourage all businesses to have them installed,” stated Madras Police Department Detective Sgt. Steve Webb. “Madras PD appreciates the assistance of our Downtown businesses along with the cooperation of our partnering agencies, Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office, Jefferson County Community Corrections, and the Oregon State Police. This case is an excellent example of private and public safety collaboration that helps bring criminals to justice and make our communities safer.”
If you have any information regarding this case, please contact Detective Sgt. Steve Webb at 541-475-2424 or at swebb@madraspd.us and refer to Case No. 221234.
