Wednesday, April 4, 2018 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Police look for fugitive Oregon State Police (OSP) are asking for the public’s help in locating a fugitive who fled from a traffic stop in Tumalo. According to OSP, on Sunday, April 1 at about 12:54 p.m., an Oregon State Trooper made a traffic stop on a white 1992 Ford F350 pickup after receiving a traffic complaint. The vehicle operator, Ronald K. Credille, 22, of Bend, pro- vided identification to the trooper but then fled the scene of the stop on foot. OSP reports that Credille had two outstanding war- rants for his arrest out of Linn County. Multiple deputies from the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office responded to the Tumalo area to assist. A short time later, Credille was seen at the end of Riverview Drive by a deputy and fled across Highway 20. A deputy gave chase along the south end of the Knife River complex but lost Credille in the area. A DCSO K9 was requested and Deputy Johnson and his part- ner Ezel responded to assist PHOTO PROVIDED Ronald K. Credille is being sought by Oregon State Police. and began to track the suspect. An Emergency Phone Network notice was sent out to residents in the area asking them to secure their homes and be on the lookout for him. Credille was tracked along the Deschutes River and the K9 team found a hat and “hoodie” sweatshirt that Credille dropped while fleeing. The Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s help in locating Credille. Contact Deschutes County 911 non-emergency number at 541-693-6911. Kitzhaber agrees fine PORTLAND (AP) — Former Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber has agreed to pay a $20,000 penalty to settle vio- lations of state ethics law. The Oregon Government Ethics Commission meets Friday, and the settlement is on its agenda. Kitzhaber agreed to it two weeks ago. Kitzhaber resigned in 2015 amid allegations that his fian- cée used their relationship to win contracts for her con- sulting business. No criminal charges were filed, but the ethics panel determined that Kitzhaber violated state rules against conflicts of interest. Kitzhaber faced a maxi- mum fine of $50,000, but cases are often negotiated.

T h e R e g i s t e r- G u a rd reports the university has increased patrols as officers look for the criminals respon- sible for four robberies and two holdup attempts on or near campus in recent weeks. Those crimes are among the dozen robberies that have taken place in Eugene and Springfield over the past month. The latest robbery happened Friday night, when a man with a gun robbed an employee at a pizza place in west Eugene. The crime spree has put UO students on alert and their parents on edge. In addition to having more officers on nightly patrol, the university has extended the hours of its shuttle service.
