Witnessed self-inflicted GSW to head - brought to Boise from Ontario, Oregon. Decedent had committed an Armed Robbery at the Bank of the West in Ontario, OR and fled the scene. Police chased decedent who ultimately stopped and shot himself in front of Malheur County Deputies. Long criminal history in AZ and ID as well.

Subject is interred in the crypt for the forgotten at the Terrace Lawns Memorial Gardens Cemetery in Meridian, Idaho

For some clarity, Malheur County is located in Oregon. It seems Mohave Valley is listed because Johnston was most recently living there. Found that information in this article about the robbery from MagicValley.com Police ID Bank Robbery Suspect with Ties in Idaho:

ONTARIO, Ore. (AP) — Oregon authorities say they have a name and sketchy background information about a man who fatally shot himself after a bank robbery, and they're appealing for help to find his relatives.

Oregon State Police said Monday the man was 71-year-old as Joseph Thomas Johnston, reported living most recently in a Mohave Valley, Ariz., mobile home park.
