MADRAS SHOOTING ENDS IN QUICK DETAINMENT BY OFFICERS; MULTIPLE ARRESTS
Release: January 27, 2024
Case No. Case #M24-0084
Contact: Ryan Kathrein 541-475-2424
At approximately 3:45 pm on Wednesday, January 24, 2024, Madras Police Officers responded to a call of shots fired at the City Pump gas station and store located at 178 Southwest 4th Street in Madras.
Due to quick response from officers, two subjects were detained and the scene was secured in approximately five minutes from the time of being dispatched. Those suspects, Dondi Leon Foster, Sr. 47 and Kristan Lee Smith, 25 were questioned and subsequently arrested. Mr. Foster was charged with Unlawful Possession of a Short-Barreled Rifle and Unlawful Use of a Weapon and Ms. Smith was charged with Robbery and Theft. While interviewing the suspects, officers determined Mr. Foster was also responsible for a shooting that occurred on January 22, 2024, where a person was shot in the leg and treated at a local hospital. He was charged with Assault and Reckless Endangering related to that incident.
“We appreciate the cooperation of our local businesses. Surveillance video from City Pump and surrounding businesses was extremely helpful in developing and confirming evidence for our case,” stated Officer Ryan Kathrein.
Later that same evening, a third suspect in the City Pump incident, Hattie Agnes Hart, 38, was arrested for Robbery and Theft.
“Everyone involved in this incident performed exactly the way the system is designed to operate for success. The store manager called 9-1-1 immediately, Frontier 9-1-1 dispatched clear and accurate information providing officers the ability to respond quickly. Those initial responses, combined with excellent detective work and mutual aid from neighboring law enforcement agencies are the necessary components for creating safer communities,” stated Police Chief Timothy Plummer.
The investigation is ongoing and anyone with related information is encouraged to contact Officer Kathrein, Madras Police Department at 541-475-2424 (x208).
