The (Longview) Daily News reports the chief of police in Rainier, Ore. was shot and killed yesterday as he responded to a call at a car stereo shop and a 21-year-old Kalama man was taken into custody.

The Oregonian reports more than a dozen shots were fired after officers from as many as five agencies including Oregon State Police converged on the scene across the Columbia River from Longview – including at least two shots which came through the windows of a nearby church.
