SWAT Team Use Stun Gun On Double
Amputee
KATU
Tuesday April 3, 2007
WILSONVILLE, Ore. - A bizarre standoff in Wilsonville took place
between police and a double-amputee and ended with the suspect in
the hospital.
Around 2 p.m. Saturday, Newberg police tried to stop Christopher
Wayne Larson, who was wanted for failing to appear in court on a
charge of being a felon in possession of a gun. Larson attempted
to escape and took his friend's wife along for the ride.
The chase headed east on Wilsonville Road until Larson drove his
red pickup truck into a filbert orchard on the north side of the
road near River View Lane.
After his car became stuck in the mud, Larson barricaded himself
in his car for several hours and would not cooperate with police
negotiators. Using the sun to their advantage, the SWAT team moved
in, broke a window and used a stun gun on him.
Larson's rap sheet is filled with crimes involving theft, guns
and drugs. His mother told negotiators his drug use causes severe
paranoia. Negotiators didn't know if he was in possession of any
weapons. It turns out he didn't. He was taken to the hospital for
stun gun wounds. After his release Larson will be turned over to
Newberg-Dundee police.
