Shane Munoz’s death has stirred shock among those who worked with and knew the 33-year-old Bend man.

Munoz was shot early Sunday morning by Kevin Perry, who arrived home and found Munoz in his living room, according to Bend Police. When police arrived at Perry’s home, 2461 N.W. Awbrey Rd., they found Munoz dead at the scene. The house’s front door apparently had been forced open.

Bend Police were called to the home about 12:39 a.m. Sunday on a report of a burglary in progress. According to police, a struggle took place when Perry and his companion, Amanda Weinman of Eugene, found Munoz in the living room. During the struggle, Perry shot Munoz with a firearm, police said. Police have declined to say if Munoz was armed or provide any details about whether the two knew each other.

Munoz had a solid reputation and a steady job at Round Butte Seed Growers’ branch in Bend.

“He was a very good worker,” said Mike Scholerman, manager of the Bend location. “He took his job seriously.”

Scholerman hired Munoz about 18 months ago. Munoz did customer service and warehouse work for the agricultural and lawn products store.

Munoz had a son, about whom he talked every day, Scholerman said.

“He’s left a huge void,” Scholerman said. “He had a good personality, and he was eager to learn new things. He had a very likable personality.”

Adam Harken of Bend said he knew Munoz for about 20 years. Harken said Munoz enjoyed dirt bikes and the outdoors and was willing to help out others.

The two went together on fishing, hiking and road trips.

“If you were moving, he would be the type of guy you could call,” Harken said.

Munoz had told him he was blessed to have great friends, Harken said.

“He loved Bend and loved all of his friends,” Harken said.

No arrests have been made in the case, police said Monday.

Bend Police would not provide any new details regarding the case Tuesday.

The results of an autopsy are pending, and an investigation into the incident is still under way.
