Late morning on September 22, 2021, a burst of gunfire in Salem, Oregon, left 29-year-old Abraham Torres Borja dead. Torres Borja, a Hispanic / Latino male, was taken to Salem Hospital but succumbed to his wounds. The shooting prompted an immediate investigation by Salem Police, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office and the Oregon State Police.

Investigators initially detained several people for questioning and, with witness assistance, focused on a primary suspect. A responding patrol officer found a man hiding in a nearby restaurant and detained him. That man was identified as 43-year-old Larry Ray Hatlestad, who was charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting and with being a felon in possession of a firearm related to a 2013 methamphetamine-possession felony.

Does anyone have information about Abraham’s last known whereabouts or events leading up to the shooting?
