The alleged victim of a drive-by shooting in Lincoln City was arrested Wednesday and charged with making false claims and lying to police.

Isaiah Padron (Isaiah Padronage), 21, of Lincoln City, admitted he caused damage to his cell phone and minor injuries to himself after he accidentally discharged a stolen firearm while in the bedroom of a family member’s home.

On Monday, Nov. 12, at 3:34 p.m., Lincoln City officers responded to 950 SE 32nd St. on a report of a gunshot victim.

The alleged victim reported he had been walking along SE 32nd Street when a car pulled up, the driver fired a gun, and the bullet hit the cell phone he was carrying in his hand. Lincoln City Police Department (LCPD) detectives recovered the phone, which had damage appearing to be caused by a bullet.

In the days following the initial report, detectives conducted a follow-up investigation to determine the suspect’s identity.

During the follow-up, detectives determined the alleged victim made a false report to police. Detectives recovered the handgun and determined it to be a stolen firearm taken during the burglary of a Central Oregon home.

Padron was taken into custody for Filing a False Police Report, Reckless Endangering, Theft I by Receiving, and Disorderly Conduct. He was lodged at the Lincoln County Jail.

Padron said Monday that the cell phone saved his life. Upon arrival to investigate the incident, police cordoned off the area with yellow crime tape.

Padron said a white male, driving a black late-model four-door sedan near 950 SE 32nd Street & SE Fleet Avenue, shouted, “Hey you!” before shooting a bullet that struck Padron’s iPhone 7, sending shrapnel flying into the bridge of his nose.

“I went for a nice little walk and ended up barely getting home leaking blood,” he said. “Shrapnel from the phone scattered and got my nose.”

After the car sped off, Padron said he managed to make it to the Spyglass Apartments, where bystanders were able to assist him.

“I appreciate everyone who helped me. I’m just lucky to be alive,” he said.

Padron was taken by ambulance to North Lincoln Samaritan Hospital, where he received stitches and was released a few hours later.

“My ears started ringing and I couldn’t hear anything,” he said. “All I could do was try to stop the bleeding.”

Padron said a white male passenger accompanied the driver. He said he didn’t know who shot at him or why.
