Israel Fausto Anaya, age 27, and Aaron Max Anaya, age 19, were arrested in their Lebanon residence after the investigation led detectives to the pair who are brothers.

Anaya and Anaya were indicted by a Marion County Grand Jury on September 16. Israel Anaya was charged with the following:

  • Attempted murder in the second degree with a firearm
  • Assault in the first degree with a firearm
  • Unlawful use of a weapon, two counts

Anaya also had an outstanding warrant for a parole violation.

Aaron Anaya was charged by the Grand Jury on the following:

The Salem Police detectives coordinated with the Linn-Benton Counties Sheriff’s Office SWAT Team and served a search warrant at the family home where the brothers were taken into custody. Detectives recovered eight firearms in the search.

The Anaya brothers are currently lodged in the Marion County Jail. All further inquiries into this investigation must be directed to the Marion County District Attorney’s Office.
