Joseph Sieg, 31, was found with a gunshot wound inside a vehicle in Independence, Oregon, on the evening of October 11, 2018. He was taken from the scene but died of his injuries; the Polk County Sheriff’s Office determined his death to be a homicide and said it was not self-harm.

Investigators identified a primary suspect, Eriberto Villarreal-Reyes, and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office with help from the Independence Police Department located and arrested him. Authorities described the shooting as stemming from a dispute rather than a random act.

Villarreal-Reyes was charged in connection with Sieg’s death and later pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the first degree and to being a felon in possession of a firearm. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison.
