SALEM, Ore. (AP) — The Marion County district attorney’s office says a 51-year-old man arrested in the shooting death of a woman at a Salem mobile home park was arraigned Monday on charges of murder and unlawful use of a weapon.

A lawyer was also appointed to represent Larry Lynn Wallace of Salem.

An autopsy confirms 50-year-old Shelli Jo Taylor died of a gunshot wound.

Marion County sheriff’s spokesman Don Thomson says Taylor was shot Thursday at a home in the Surf Wood Mobile Park. She died at Salem Hospital.

Thomson says both Wallace and Taylor lived at the same mobile home. He says Wallace’s parents owned the home and Taylor rented a room from them.
