Thursday, Feb. 3
* Deputies pepper sprayed a dog
in the Kerby High Pines Trailer Park
where they were looking for a male
subject with an outstanding warrant.
The subject remains at large and the
dog has a bone to pick with him.
* Briana L. Ruston, 21, was
cited and released for possession
of meth, no operator license and
driving uninsured. Her vehicle
was towed following a mid-day
traffic complaint in downtown C.J.
* A female wearing a black
coat and jeans was running on East
River Street asking passing motorists
for help, while a white-haired man
wearing a baseball cap and carrying
a white dog followed her and told
her to knock it off. When two people
matching the description were
contacted, they were hostile and
denied being near the high school.
Must have been another couple with
a white dog running up the roadway.
* Someone on Caves Hwy.
reported her vehicle stolen after
she gave the keys to her red 1974
Coupe De Ville Cadillac to a
potential buyer. A man promised to
return her car after he got insurance
and washed the car, but was seen
“joyriding” around C.J. instead.
Talkin’ about those Car Wash Blues…
* Wayne Anthony Oliver,
64, was sleeping in the lobby
of the C.J. Post Office at 8:37
p.m. and was advised to leave.
Friday, Feb. 4
* Nancy Ann Wilson, 52,
claims that she is a citizen of a
Sovereign Nation, doesn’t need a
license and will continue to drive
without one. Apparently Sovereign
Nation citizens are exempt from
insurance as well, although she was
still cited following a traffic stop in
the 200 block of N. Redwood Hwy.
* Kicking down fences
is a frequent occurrence in the
400 block of West River Street.
* No suspect information was
available after someone hit a gray
1999 Mercury Marquis in the Shop
Smart parking lot, damaging the front
bumper and passenger side headlight.
* A vacant house in the
500 block of Old Stage Road
sustained
extensive
damage.
* Two lost females seeking
help at Shadywood Drive and Dick
George Road were given a courtesy
ride to their cousin’s residence in
Holland Loop. They claimed they
received a ride from a stranger then
fled on foot after he was taking
too long to refuel his vehicle.
* A woman in the 400 block of
Squaw Mountain Road received a
notice that her tax refund had been
directly deposited into her bank
account — only she doesn’t have
a bank account. Bank routing and
account numbers led to the arrest of
Jeffery Richard Wayne Treston, 26, on
charges of ID theft, first degree theft,
theft by deception and computer crime.
* The open beer can behind
the bench where Jimmy Richard
Delzell was sitting wasn’t his, and
Ronald Leroy Satterfield and David
Michael Drew both had two cans
of beer, but they were unopened.
Saturday, Feb. 5
* Charlene Merritt, 29,
keeps returning to Shady Acres
Trailer Park, even though she has
been evicted; she will be warned
about trespassing and harassment.
* Subjects were said to be
stealing firewood without permits
on Indian Hill LLC property
on Redwood Hwy. in O’Brien.
* Thinking that her grandson
had been arrested in Canada, a
giving grandmother in Lakeshore
Drive sent money orders from
Walmart, totaling $15,000. The case
is pending further investigation.
* Billy J. Edward, 40, and
Ralph Christopher Rowden, 44,
were warned about trespassing in
the 200 block of S. Redwood Hwy.
* Bill Frasier couldn’t be
located, but his large hound dog will
be staying at the C.J. 76 Station.
They say it shows up there all the
time looking for biscuits anyway.
Sunday, Feb. 6
* An aggressive pit bull
in the 300 block of Three Mill
Road was taken into custody and
dropped off at animal control.
* Some lady in a white pickup
truck was looking for tools at a
residence in the 2000 block of Dick
George Road, but was confronted
and told there were no tools. She
then came back yelling and hollering
about a rototiller. After she took two
propane tanks from the carport and
placed them into her vehicle, she was
advised not to return to that location.
* Broken glass, smashed dishes
and a bent shelf in a kitchen in the
4000 block of Deer Creek Road might
have been the result of a burglary.
Tuesday, Feb. 8
* Nothing interesting happened
today according to police logs.
Monday, Feb. 7
* The owner of Rene’s Place
was notified that her front window
was broken during the night. It did not
appear that entry was made into the
business on S. Redwood Hwy., but
the window will cost $500 to replace.
* Just because she’s “Nacho
Mama” doesn’t mean customers
should try to pay her with checks
drawn on insufficient funds.
* A woman in the parking lot by
Curves drove her 2007 Toyota Matrix
into an off-white pearl sedan with silver
stripes, doing damage to the left rear
quarter panel. She panicked and didn’t
leave a note, but provided insurance
information to the sheriff’s office.
* David Wayne Sheldon, 25,
called in from Kerby High Pines
Trailer Park because he heard
deputies were looking for him.
Sheldon said he was not aware that
he had a warrant, but was cited
to appear for contempt charges.
* You know it’s one of those
days when you don’t have any
marijuana, your pipe falls out of your
pocket and breaks on school property.
* Gregory Wayne Sampley, 58,
is not allowed to be in downtown
C.J., so when he was found in the 100
block of S. Redwood Hwy., he was
transported to the Josephine County
jail on criminal trespass charges.
* Neighbors took car keys from
Sonja Marie Rasmussen, 30, who was
cited for driving under the influence of
intoxicants charge after a car was stuck
in a ditch in the end of the cul-de-sac
of Shadowbrook Drive at 1:16 a.m.
* Phil Yves Fraser, 56, was
arrested in the 20000 block of Caves
Hwy. on a warrant for failure to appear
on second degree theft charges.
Wednesday, Feb. 9
*
Someone at the Kerby
High Pines Trailer Park called
for help because two guys were
“mooing” at him and flashing their
headlights. He was advised to
quit antagonizing the situation by
textually harassing his ex-girlfriend.
*
Firewood
is
being
illegally taken from Redwood
Hwy. near Gold Canyon Drive.
* It seemed suspicious that
a new black Shanghai scooter
with no license plates was still
parked at the C.J. Post Office.
* Two bullets from a big-
bore semi-automatic pistol passed
right over a man’s head, so close
he could hear the buzz as they
went by, but none of the neighbors
on Shadywood Drive admitted
to shooting or hearing any shots.
* A man on Deer Creek Road
paid a couple to clean up his yard and
take the items to the dump. Instead,
the duo cut a cable lock and dumped
the load of trash in front of a mobile
home in the 100 block of Hogue Drive.
Thursday, Feb. 10
* Someone removed a four-foot
long natural wood bench valued at $100
from a trailhead at the Forks State Park.
* Four dogs ran aggressively
at a woman on her property in
the 8000 block of Takilma Road
and a light brown and white pit
bull bit her on the left knee before
she was able to get into her car.
* With several other recent rabies
cases in the area, the dead skunk at
Crooks Creek and Reeves Creek
Roads seemed suspicious because
there was no skunk smell, and it did
not appear to have been hit by a car.
