2 Dead, 2 Injured In Workplace Murder/Suicide

"Tualatin, OR - A 39-year-old Gladstone man shot and killed his estranged wife Tuesday morning at the Tualatin drug-test lab where she worked in what police are calling an act of domestic violence.

"Tualatin police said Robert James Beiser killed 36-year-old Teresa Marie Beiser, also of Gladstone, in an attack shortly before noon at the Legacy MetroLab on Southwest Mohawk Street in Tualatin. Robert Beiser then turned his weapon on himself, and died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

"Two other MetroLab employees also were wounded in the attack. A 63-year-old man was taken by Life Flight helicopter to Oregon Health and Science University Hospital, where he had surgery for multiple gunshot wounds. A 20-year-old woman was injured by flying glass and was treated at Legacy Emanuel Hospital and Medical Center for her non-life-threatening injuries.

"Witnesses said that just before noon a man later identified as Robert Beiser, armed with a rifle, walked up to the Legacy MetroLab, 7587 S.W. Mohawk St., and opened fire on people in the building.

"Beiser began shooting before he entered the building, blowing out one of the lab's front windows. People in businesses several hundred yards away from the lab said they heard the rifle shots.

"Police responded to the building within two minutes. Inside they found Teresa Beiser dead from a gunshot wound. Robert Beiser also died in the building.

"Tualatin Police Chief Kent Barker told reporters that investigators were still trying to piece together details of the attack and did not have a motive for the shooting."
