Portland Police says 18-year-old Jomonee Foster was taken into custody Thursday.

He was booked into the Multnomah County Detention Center on charges of second-degree attempted murder and first-degree assault.

The arrest stems from a shooting reported around 5 p.m. on May 17th on Southeast Flavel Court.
