There also was a mention of switched license tags. *Dale Alan Curtis, 50, was tak- en into custody, apparently in con- nection with being a fugitive, after a traffic stop in Downtown CJ. *Following a “minor fender bender” on a parking lot in Down- town CJ, one motorist (NIL) was said to be belligerent. The CJ con- tract deputy was in Grants Pass with an arrestee and an Oregon State Po- lice (OSP) trooper was contacted, but then the drivers exchanged in- formation and all was OK. Outside the Valley *Twelve calls were logged. Tuesday, Aug. 5 *An employee (NIL) at Oregon Caves National Monument reported damage to his (or her) vehicle, but was unsure whether it happened in CJ or at the monument. *A brown horse which didn’t belong there was in a person’s yard in the 8400 block of Takilma Road. *Civil compromise was reached in the 32000 block of Red- wood Hwy. in connection with a dis- pute about a transaction involving a motor vehicle. *Large branches were said to be on Redwood Hwy. near the Holi- day Inn in Kerby, but then they were cleared. *”Minor cuts to the face” were reported after a motorist (NIL) drove into a tree on Hay’s Cutoff. Use of alcohol was not indicated. *The driver (NIL) of a vehicle with an outstanding warrant for fel- ony DWS was released after a traffic stop at the south end of CJ, as the county jail wouldn’t accept the per- son for incarceration.

A patrol deputy was aided by a Search And Rescue deputy. *OSP was to handle a nonin- jury, single-vehicle accident in the 1400 block of Caves Hwy. Outside the Valley *Eleven calls were logged. Friday, Aug. 8 *Theft of a car hauler and re- lated equipment was reported from the 27000 block of Redwood Hwy. *Someone (NIL) who had been warned previously about not wear- ing a seat belt was warned again in CJ. *People (NIL) on Gamay Drive had a father-son incident in which the latter “was armed with a shovel.” *A teen-ager on Dogwood Lane texted a friend with complaints about being locked up and not be- ing fed, but it turned out that he was being punished for not cleaning his room. His dad was going to handle the situation. Outside the Valley *Eleven incidents were logged including a large group of people fighting in the 4000 block of Wil- liams Hwy.
