A June 18, 2016 shooting outside The Courts gymnasium and events center at 14523 SW Millikan Way in Beaverton ended with 23-year-old Andres Castorena dead and another 23-year-old, Fernando Chaires, seriously injured. The incident occurred just before 9 p.m. during a Quinceanera celebration when an argument broke out in the parking lot after the victims’ car entered the area.

Police identified 19-year-old Roshawn Travers of Beaverton as the person involved in the altercation. Travers told officers he and a friend were about to cross the driveway when the car nearly hit him, that he had flashed a handgun, and that during the confrontation he accidentally shot himself in the leg before shooting the car’s driver, Andres Castorena, and the passenger, Fernando Chaires. Travers was found a half-block away with gunshot wounds and was arrested and lodged in the Washington County Jail; he did not enter a plea at his initial court appearance on murder and assault charges and a preliminary hearing was set for later that month.

The Washington County Major Crimes Team assisted the investigation, and Millikan Way was closed for several hours while police worked at the scene. Family members expressed shock and sorrow and questioned the motives behind the shooting.

Did anyone at the event or in the neighborhood see what led to the parking-lot argument?
