Tigard police detectives have identified a man who killed himself after shooting his wife and another woman in Tigard Friday night.
Bradley Dean Ferris, 30, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after barricading himself in the apartment he shared with his wife at the Bonita Villa Apartments at 14640 S.W. 76th Avenue, according to Jim Wolf, Tigard police spokesman.
Ferris fired several rounds from a 12-gauge shotgun in the same apartment injuring his 34- year-old wife, Dorene, and a friend of a co-worker, Tonya Kay, also 34.
The two women were taken to Oregon Health Sciences University. Dorene Ferris was shot in the face, and Kay was shot in the abdomen, Wolf said.
A fourth person, Ferris' co-worker, who was also present in the apartment at the time was not injured.
Investigators are still interviewing witnesses to piece together what prompted Ferris to begin shooting. Police reports indicate that alcohol may have been involved
