Zorro calling!

It looks as some things have changed at the StatesmanJournal, but not everything.

In today's paper Dan De Carbonel tells us about Azael Lopez-Rodriguez, 19, (who Dan claims is of Salem) going berserk yesterday around 9:00 AM and injuring people with what may have been a sword and attacked others he encountered (including a PGE Meter Reader and onlookers ) as he walked through several neighborhoods and was eventually captured in a back yard where a Police Dog bit him and he was Tased three times before he stopped fighting.

Dan goes on with some details about cell phones, breaking into parked cars and wallets, but much of the story that Dan omitted was covered by KPTV-12 at 10:00.

KPTV included #1 about Azael Lopez-Rodriguez, 19, (who Dan claims is of Salem) entering a terrified elderly couple's home and after bouncing around their home and traumatizing the residents for a few minutes, went to their back yard and that was where a Police dog found him hiding in some bushes.

Note: I believe there were additional reports of Azael Lopez-Rodriguez, 19, (who Dan claims is of Salem) entering other residences but nothing about that was mentioned in any news reports. Perhaps they were only attempted enterings which is scary enough if you are at home when some drug crazed Mexican with a sword comes calling at your door.

KPTV included #2 The event lasted almost an hour and turned a large area of the city up-side down as the calls to 911 by panicked citizens poured in reporting his violent actions and Police raced around in circles in attempts to apprehend him.

Note: It seems that Azael Lopez-Rodriguez, 19, (who Dan claims is of Salem) was fleet of foot and moved very quickly, either threatening or attacking anybody and everybody who didn't run from him.

Oh yes, they needed an interpreter as Azael Lopez-Rodriguez, 19, (who Dan claims is of Salem) didn't speak any English.

LOPEZ-RODRIGUEZ, AZAEL Marion County Inmate #15549523 = ROBB I, ASSA IV, ROBB III, DISORDERLY, MENACING.

I need more information:
Does anyone know where this guy was from? I heard that he was from Salem. Is he a Mexican guy? I can't really tell from just his name.
I hope he, now that he's in State Care, will get the help he needs.

/I'll stop now.
