PORTLAND – Police arrested a 24-year-old man wanted for an Oct. 22 shooting in Baker City.

District Attorney Matt Shirtcliff of Baker County says investigators traveled to Portland to arrest Zachary Persicke on a charge of first-degree assault.

He is accused of shooting Jesse Rounsville in the torso. The 46-year-old Rounsville was flown to a Boise hospital, where he is expected to recover.

The case will go before a grand jury next week.

Persicke moved to Baker City about two months ago from the Everett, Wash.
