Police Shoot and Kill Gladstone Man

OREGON - Gunfire late Tuesday night in Gladstone left a man dead on his front lawn after police shot him during a domestic disturbance.  They say 23-year-old Michael Evans was armed with a knife and tearing apart his house on West Fairfield Street.

Neighbors reported hearing between four and five shots.  The man's father says his son had some issues, but should not have been shot dead by police.
 
Officers Steve Mixson and Christopher Spore are on paid administrative leave, which is standard in officer-involved shooting investigations.  The Clackamas County Major Crimes Team is overseeing the investigation.
