Page A-8 Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, Ore. Wednesday, April 6, 2016 TALES ... Continued from A-7 Outside the Valley * There were 15 logged entries for today. Wednesday, March 30 *The driver of the disabled vehicle on Redwood Hwy. at Briggs Valley Road had help on the way at 1 p.m. *At 2:25 p.m., there was a 911-call in the area of Illinois Valley High School. Noth- ing was heard but rustling, and it sounded like the phone was in a backpack. There were no sounds of disturbance. *Another pocket-dial came in from the 1200 block of Illinois River Road at 3:41 p.m. *A mother and son were nearly hit by a rusty black car at S. Old Stage Road and Caves Hwy. at 6:17 p.m. The older 90s compact car, possibly a Honda, was heading towards Takilma after it swerved at them. Outside the Valley *Incidents logged equals 23. Thursday, March 31 *A man stated he served small claims paperwork on someone’s mother-in-law in the 200 block of Shadowbrook Drive. That apparently didn’t go over well, because he received a threatening phone call, and so did his mother in California. *At 7:30 a.m. an aggressive guy in a dark blue, newer Chevy pickup flew into a parking lot in the 100 block of Deer Creek Road at 80 m.p.h. He accused the driver of a silver Dodge Ram 500 of hitting his car earlier in the week. The Chevy driver was covered in tattoos, including on his eyelids. (That must have hurt!) The Ram driver was just passing through and not even in the area that week, but he supplied his driver’s license and vehicle information to the tattooed tor- mentor anyway. *A vehicle was found in the Tarter Gulch area, up the Bureau of Land Manage- ment (BLM) forest road at 11:15 a.m. The auto was buried and covered with branches, with a sign on it that said “Do not touch.” *An alert citizen reported a vehicle with the steering column ignition punched out in the 100 block of N. Redwood Hwy. at 12:56 p.m. *A lady was parked in the U.S. Post Office parking lot in Selma to do some shop- ping. When she returned at 4:09 p.m., she noticed the rear bumper on the driver’s side had severe damage estimated at $2,000. Who- ever hit the car did not bother to leave a note, so she reported the incident to Department of Motor Vehicles and her insurance company. Outside the Valley *There were 25 log listings. Friday, April 1 *No fooling! There were only 3 logged incidents for Illinois Valley today. *The driver of a green Chevy Trailblazer was cleared with a warning for not having any license plates in the 18400 block of Red- wood Hwy. at 9:32 a.m. *A suspicious incident involving a juve- nile happened at 12:21 p.m. at W. River Street and N. Redwood Hwy. *A very loud explosion with a large column of smoke was observed on Madrona Drive at 1:16 p.m. That’s what happens when an open burn is fired up using too much gasoline. Outside the Valley *There were 21 incidents. Saturday, April 2 *At 12:11 a.m., a woman with a bleed- ing nose said she had been assaulted while walking on Old Stage Road by people in a white compact car, perhaps a Honda. She had no information on the suspects. There were several vehicle traffic stops. (Apparently folks weren’t expecting law enforcement presence at this hour.) *A warning was given to a driver on Redwood Hwy. at Airport Drive at 12:14 a.m. *The driver of a green Ranger was also warned on Redwood Hwy. at Waldo Road at 12:17 a.m. *Whoever was stopped at 12:21 a.m. at 409 S. Redwood Hwy. passed inspection. *Another driver at Redwood Hwy. at Pinewood Way got off with a warning at 12:22 a.m. *Curtis Carico, 23, was arrested and detained at Josephine County Jail at 2:24 a.m. Carico was charged with attempting to elude, and felony reckless driving on Redwood Hwy. at Brown Road. *A driver on Hwy. 199 at Watkins Street was warned for defective equipment because the right front headlight was out at 12:35 a.m. *The driver of a white Honda was also warned for inoperative headlight at S. Old Stage Road and Noah’s Way at 12:42 a.m. *More vehicle stops at Lurline Lane and Laurel Road at 1:01 a.m., and River Street and Shadowbrook Drive at 1:14 a.m. *The purse belonging to a recent as- sault victim was found near the Sportsman Tavern at 1:16 a.m. The guy that dropped off the purse had not been in a fight, and the purse was not dusty and showed no signs of scrapes. No one had gone through the contents. The woman had been drinking, so she may have been jumped or she may have fallen down. *Another traffic stop at 1:18 a.m. at S. Redwood Hwy. and W. Watkins Street resulted in a warning. *JCSO assisted Oregon State Police (OSP) in the pursuit of a lead-foot driving 120 m.p.h. on Sauers Flat. Spike strips were set out on Hwy. 199 by Glendon Road, caus- ing heavy sparks and a foot bail at E. River Street. The passenger was in custody at 1:51 a.m. *A driver with a license from Mexico was warned for failure to maintain lane at 220 S. Redwood Hwy. at 1:25 a.m. *Another driver was warned at 1:32 a.m. at 112 S. Redwood Hwy. *All those stops finally paid off at 1:57 a.m. in the 200 block of Old Stage Road. Ronald Scott Webb, 49, was arrested on a Los Angeles Police Department warrant for assault with deadly weapon. He is detained pending extradition on $1,070,000 bail. *A dangerous, angry person was send- ing threatening messages to his 82-year-old father, his aunt and his older half-brother. The menacing couch-surfer needed to be warned and trespassed from property in the 10500 block of Redwood Hwy. *At 12:25 p.m. there was a 911-hangup call from the 200 block of N. Sawyer Avenue. *The 911 call at 3:11 p.m. was a false alarm and everyone was safe in the 4300 block of Dick George Road. *An SOS alarm rang at 6:10 p.m. in the 200 block of S. Old Stage Road. Outside the Valley *Eleven incidents were recorded. Sunday, April 3 * An employee in the 200 block of W. Watkins Street reported a very belligerent trespasser at 12:31 p.m. Sarah Ivory Jentzch, 25, was in custody for second-degree trespass at 2:07 p.m. *There was a dangerous situation on Airport Drive because the current is very high, even for adults to swim. Eight teenagers wearing swim trunks were having a drinking party at 5:23 p.m. The 21-year-old registered owner of the yellow sedan was made to pour out the case of alcohol and all parties were warned of underage drinking (Alcohol abuse.) *At 5:25 p.m. there was a large group of 30 kids and adults who were spray-painting the awning at Jubilee Park in response to the death of Trevor. The area was recently re- painted following a prior act of graffiti. Cody Parsons, 26, and Travis Bohn, 28, were both arrested for second-degree criminal trespass. They were cited to appear in May.
