Exclusive: Good Samaritan rescues worker from 'guy with a gun'

TUALATIN, Ore. - KATU has an exclusive interview with the Good Samaritan who helped race a 20-year-old woman to safety after Tuesday's workplace shooting at a Tualatin medical lab.

The Good Samaritan was Joe Warren, a man driving his truck home from work because he just didn't feel well. The next thing he knew, a bloodied woman was sliding towards him down an ivy-covered hill and screaming for help.

Warren said he didn't have a cell phone, so he drove her to a nearby Subway store where he found a man with a phone to call 9-1-1.

"I see this gal almost at the bottom of the hill, and she's screaming, 'Help me, somebody please help me,'" said Warren. "So I stopped and unlocked my truck and she came running around and jumps in and she's covered in blood.

"I didn't know why she was covered with blood," Warren said. "I just said, 'Do you need to get to a hospital? She said, 'No just get me out of here; there's a guy with a gun and shots are fired.'"

Warren said he has since cleaned most of the blood from the outside of his truck. However, she was bleeding heavily from her legs, staining the floor and center console.

Warren said he doesn't think she was shot, instead saying her cuts were from flying glass.

The woman told him that the shooter had two big guns and he fired through some type of window at her office, the Legacy MetroLab at Southwest Martinazzi Avenue at Southwest Warm Springs Street in Tualatin.

The woman also told Warren that the shooter took aim at the other employees.

In a recap of the details surrounding this office shooting, two people are dead - one woman and the shooter. As to the identity of the shooter, police as of a press conference Tuesday at 4 p.m. would say only that the shooter and the dead women knew each other.
