A June 5, 2025 shooting outside Prospect, Oregon, left 47-year-old JR Anthony Monteleone III dead. Deputies were called to a residence in the 2000 block of Shelly Drive after an emergency call at 1:27 a.m.; Monteleone was found with a gunshot wound and was transported by Mercy Flights to a local hospital, where he later died. Detectives and medical examiners processed the scene and search-and-rescue volunteers returned in the following days, locating items investigators described as critical to the case.

A Prospect resident, 32-year-old Chad Allen McPherson, was detained at the scene. Within days a Jackson County Grand Jury indicted McPherson on second-degree murder and felon in possession of a firearm; he was lodged in the Jackson County Jail while the investigation continued. Authorities have not released details about motive or any additional suspects.

Did anyone in the Prospect area see or hear anything around Shelly Drive after 1:27 a.m. on June 5?
