Wednesday, April 6, 2016 Page A-7 Tales from the Rural Patrol (Editor’s Note: Factual information for ‘Tales’ is provided by official law enforcement agencies. All persons listed are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Charges can be amended or dismissed.) *** Sunday, March 27 *A red-haired floozy was flashing her belly, cussing at traffic, and flipping off vehicles in the 100 block of N. Redwood Hwy. at 9:13 a.m. She appeared to be under the influence, but Oregon State Police (OSP) had no units in the area. *Some thief stole a brown 1988 Ford Bronco from the 500 block of Schumacher Street over- night. *A fuel line was cut in the 500 block of E. River Street. (Did they need gas for the Bronco?) *At 11:01 a.m. the same au- burn air-head was propped against a dumpster, kicking at traffic in the 100 block of N. Redwood Hwy. Jenny Gwen Thomas, 44, was ar- rested and charged with disorderly conduct at 11:55 a.m. On her ride to Josephine County Jail, the disturbed woman became combative, banging her head against the cage and spit- ting at the windows. *So far, there have been 42 hang-up calls to 911 from the woman in the 2400 block of Rocky- dale Road. (No, that will not merit 42 blurbs in the blotter.) *The driver of a white Ford Taurus was cited for driving on a suspended license, driving while uninsured and failure to renew registration during a vehicle stop on Redwood Hwy. at Deer Creek Road at 12:03 p.m. *A sweet, mixed-breed female dog with a deep gash under her jaw bone was running around S. Red- wood Hwy. for a few days. The guy who runs the blanket stand was fi- nally able to catch her, and the poor pooch was taken to animal control for treatment. *Marital discord raised its ugly head for a couple from Ridge Vista Drive. The I-Don’ts are now learning about restraining orders, community property and custody issues. (Please, keep it civil for the sake of the kids.) *A skinny bull was running in the roadway of Hwy. 199 at mile- post 32 at 2:20 p.m. The owner was on the way to bring the bony bovine home. *An abandoned vehicle has been tagged to be towed away from the 200 block of Ollis Road because it has been parked there for nearly a month. *The S.O.S. roof motion detector sounded at 3:44 p.m. in the 200 block of S. Redwood Hwy. Employees checked and there was no one inside. Everything appeared secure following a visual inspection of the rooftop from the ground. Outside the Valley *Logged incidents total 13. Monday, March 28 *Surveillance data was obtained from the 500 block of E. River Street at 10:49 a.m. *A stolen vehicle in the 2500 block of Waldo Road was recovered at 11:10 a.m. It was missing a tire on the rear passenger side. (Is it eas- ier to steal a car than to buy a tire?) *Robert Charles Breakfield, 52, was arrested at Jubilee Park at 12:40 p.m. and detained at the Jose- phine County Jail. Breakfield was charged with possession of meth, carrying a concealed weapon and felon in possession of a restricted weapon. *An out-of-state mother was concerned because she hadn’t spoken to her 5-year-old child for two days, and the father was refus- ing to allow contact to occur. The worried mom phoned for help from Josephine County Sheriff’s Office (JCSO). Nathaniel Dale Manor, 31, was arrested in the 24000 block of Redwood Hwy. on an extraditable South Dakota warrant for probation violation for drugs. (Never mess with a mama bear and her cubs.) *Teed-off men and women were fighting with golf clubs in the 100 block of Hussey Avenue at 1:28 p.m. Although it was obvious that there was some kind of disturbance, no one was willing to make a com- plaint. (That’s par for the course.) *Investigation continued at Taylor’s at 1:36 p.m. *Graffiti covered the stage area as well as the east side of the bathrooms at Jubilee Park. A tran- sient’s Facebook admission targets him as a suspect. A report was filed for second-degree mischief on this misguided attempt to memorialize his recently-deceased friend. *At 4:31 p.m. some clown wearing a red hat was riding a yel- low quad in the skate park at Jubilee Park. *Remember the vehicle that was tagged to be towed from the 200 block of Ollis Road? Well, they meant it. Jerry’s Tow did their job at 5:26 p.m. *A woman in the 24000 block of Redwood Hwy. complained that her hackster husband was send- ing menacing emails and Face- book postings to her friends and to himself, and making it look like they were from her. This was an unfounded restraining order viola- tion, and she was advised to change her passwords on her Facebook and email accounts. Outside the Valley *There were 19 logged items. Tuesday, March 29 *Stephen’s Family Chapel responded to a deceased 74-year-old man in the 78000 block of Caves Hwy. *When JCSO contacted the registered owner of watercraft, the guy in the 200 block of Dogwood Lane stated that he had sold the watercraft a year ago, and had no information on the new owner. *Investigation continued at Jubilee Park at 11:22 a.m. *Cari Lee Ginerva, 28, was arrested at Caves Avenue and E. Lister Street at 12:25 p.m. She was charged with violation of probation on an original charge of unauthor- ized use of a motor vehicle, as well as failure to appear. *There was a Chevy S-10 in the parking lot behind the church at 25900 block of Redwood Hwy. at 11:40 a.m. The black Chevy with a red stripe had a broken window and steering column, and the key in- side did not match the vehicle. The Chevy was tagged to be towed. * The temporary tag was not visible, so the driver of a black Nissan Pathfinder was warned for having no license plates in the 300- block of E. River Street at 12:43 p.m. *At 1:05 p.m. someone at 355 Caves Hwy. was sweeping up gravel from a bozo doing brodies. *An unsafe driver was cited into Cave Junction municipal court after a traffic stop at Redwood Hwy. and Waldamar Road at 3:27 p.m. He was given a verbal warning for speed, and cited for unsafe passing on the left. *At 4 p.m. the operator of a blue Jeep Cherokee was cited for driving on a suspended license, un- insured driving and illegal display of plates. *Last year a squatter was found in the 18200 block of Red- wood Hwy. This year it appears the trespasser may have returned to his vacation home. *A criminal report was filed in the 200 block of E. Watkins Street at 4:54 p.m. *At 5:03 p.m. a grandson was out of control and threatening to run away from the 500 block of W. River Street. Assistance was ren- dered, and both parties have worked out their differences. *A bully from Sand Creek Road told a resident in the 3100 block of Redwood Hwy. that he was going to his house to cause prob- lems. The information was logged in case he does. *A driver in the 200 block of N. Redwood Hwy. was warned for no driver’s license and an illegal u-turn at 5:42 p.m. SEE TALES ON A-8 Exclusive dealer of Viper Tactical Arms Time to start thinking about Christmas We have layaway I.V.
