The Clackamas County Sheriff's Office is investigating a shooting that killed a man Saturday night near Sandy.

A woman at the house texted a friend that she'd shot and killed a man.

When deputies arrived at 18655 SE Autumn Way in unincorporated Sandy the woman refused to come out of the residence.

They made several attempts to contact the suspect via phone, loudspeaker and text message. The suspect initially refused to comply with the instructions of the deputies on scene. After some time the suspect began exchanging text messages with dispatchers and after about one hour exited the residence and surrendered to deputies without incident. 

Deputies searched the house and located the body of a deceased male. 

Detectives with the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office Homicide and Violent Crimes Unit are conducting their investigation while the Crime Scene Investigations Unit processes the scene with the help of the Clackamas County Medical Examiner's Office and the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office Criminal Reconstruction and Forensic Team. 

The name of the woman and the man who was killed have not been released.
