Man suspected in two Vancouver shootings appears in court

A judge Tuesday ordered that a man accused in two Vancouver shootings — in which someone was wounded in each — be held on $1 million bail.

Isaac Depre Frazier, 22, no address provided, appeared in Clark County Superior Court on suspicion of attempted first-degree murder, two counts of first-degree kidnapping, two counts of first-degree robbery, two counts of first-degree assault, three counts of first-degree unlawful possession of a firearm and one count of drive-by shooting between the two incidents.

Both victims, Nehemiah Beavers, 24, and Auston Dunn, 22, were no longer listed as patients at PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center, a hospital spokesman said.

At about 10:40 p.m. Nov. 8, Vancouver police were called to the QuarterDeck Bar at 4300 E. Fourth Plain Blvd. for reports of a shooting. The caller, Anthony Tyler, said his cousin was shot by a man named “Isaac,” who had recently gotten out of jail, according to an affidavit of probable cause filed in the case.

About 10 minutes later, employees at PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center reported that a man, identified as Beavers, arrived at the hospital with gunshot wounds to his chest and abdomen. It was initially believed he was not going to survive his injuries, the affidavit states.

A friend of Beavers’, John McVicker, told police that Beavers got into an altercation in the bar’s parking lot with a man wearing a hooded sweatshirt. McVicker saw the man, later identified by police as Frazier, shoot Beavers, he said. Beavers fell to the ground, and McVicker ran away, court records said. People reported that a car fled from the area afterward.

Tyler told detectives that he knows Frazier and saw him pull out a silver handgun from his jacket pocket and shoot Beavers. He was scared of being shot, he said, and fled the area, according to court documents. Frazier was not immediately located.

Then at about 8:25 p.m. Dec. 3, Vancouver police were called to another shooting at 4604 N.E. 132nd Place. The victim, Dunn, suffered a single gunshot wound to his leg and scrotum, according to a separate probable cause affidavit.

When police arrived, they saw a man, identified as Jefferson Lopez, walking away from the residence. Lopez told police he went to the house with Frazier, and while inside, Frazier pulled out a handgun to rob Dunn of his marijuana and money, the affidavit said.

Lopez took Dunn’s 1-year-old son into a back bedroom. He then heard a gunshot and came out to find Dunn with a gunshot wound to his leg, court records state.

In an interview at the hospital, Dunn told detectives that Lopez came to his house with Frazier, whom he only knew as “Ike.” Frazier pulled out two handguns from his waistband and held one in each hand. He then demanded Dunn’s marijuana and money, but Dunn refused, according to court documents.

Frazier struck Dunn twice on the side of his head, then shot him in his right leg. Frazier pointed one of the handguns at Dunn’s head and pulled the trigger several times, but it did not fire. He then went into Dunn’s bedroom and stole several items, including a watch and several knives and swords, the affidavit said.

Dunn’s girlfriend, Riley Wynn, was also home at the time of the shooting. She was in the garage smoking when she heard a disturbance inside. When she entered the house, she saw Frazier with two handguns, pointing one at Dunn and the other at Lopez. She went back to the garage to call 911 and heard a couple of gunshots, court records state.

Wynn entered the house again and found Dunn bleeding from his leg. Frazier took her cellphone, she said, and ordered her back to the garage, according to court documents. Frazier fled the scene before police arrived.

He was identified as a passenger in a vehicle stopped by Vancouver patrol officers about 2:15 a.m. Sunday. He was arrested without incident on a felony warrant and as a suspect in the shooting cases, according to a police news release.

During his hearing, the prosecution said Frazier has extensive criminal history, much of it from 2017.

He will be arraigned Friday.
