Police Find Man Dead Inside Local Residence page A12 A local man was found dead inside his residence at Foley Lakes Trailer Court Tuesday and the Wasco County Sheriff's office said he died of a self inflicted gunshot. A press release from the sheriff's office said that agency, along with units from the Oregon State Police and The Dalles City police responded to 4109 Chenowith Road, Space A-41 at 7:15 a.m. to a domestic distrubance that involved shots fired. A female called police after she arrived at the residence and found the male occupant armed. She tried to get the gun away from him, then left the house and called 9-1-1. About a minute into her conversation, she reported she heard a shot. Officers responding heard additional shots and secured a perimeter around the residence. The SERT team from the city police department was activated and went to the scene. An ambulance crew from Mid-Columbia Fire & Rescue also went to the scene for standby duty. Several attempts were made by officers to contact the individual inside the residence with no response. At approximately 11:35 a.m. the SERT team gained entry to the residence and found Michael Steven Frizzell, 40, deceased. The incident is still under investigation by the OSP (Oregon State Police.)
