Monday, Dec. 12
*Gold Coast Security
reported an ATM panic alarm
at First Community Credit
Union at 103 S. Redwood
Hwy. at 9:18 a.m. It was A-OK,
just employees servicing the
automatic teller machine.
*Brian Maxwell, 32,
was arrested in the 200 block
of Schumacher Street for
possession of meth and parole
violation at 1:19 p.m. He was
detained at Josephine County
Jail.
*A woman in the 300
block of Clear Creek Road
claimed that her neighbor called
her dog outside of the gate,
then he shot her pet at 12:34
p.m. Her neighbor in the 200
block of Pine Tree Way had
a different version. He stated
that her dog killed his pooch
previously. A Josephine County
Animal Control officer told him
he could shoot her dog if he
saw it running around outside
her fence. He saw the canine
out of its yard, so he shot it.
The woman then alleged that
the neighbor came onto her
property to shoot her dog, so
he was trespassing. A report
was filed regarding the animal
problem.
*A motorist requested a
tow truck at 305 S. Redwood
Hwy. at 12:35 p.m., but he
started the car once he figured
out the ignition problem.
Outside the Valley
*Twenty-five incidents.
Tuesday, Dec. 13
*A 2001 VW Golf was
reportedly stolen from Cascade
Auto after Dec. 7. A gal found
out from Facebook that her
vehicle had been spotted
behind the prior “Going Deep”
restaurant in the 200 block
of Redwood Hwy. at 10:53
a.m. The VW had to be towed
because the engine was blown
up. She found a coat, knife,
battery and other items that did
not belong to her inside her car.
*When tenants moved
away from the 1900 block of
Lone Mountain Road, they
left behind storage containers
belonging to Medford Storage.
The land owner does not want
to return the pods to Medford
Storage until they pay him
for damages that his former
tenants did to his property.
He was advised that his issue
is with his tenants, not the
storage company, which would
be justified in reporting their
containers as stolen if he
refuses to allow them access
to retrieve them. The property
owner will be home from
California on Dec. 28, and he
will consider whether he will be
cooperative or not.
*A gal who lives in
the 100 block of Ollis Road
believes that the property
manager dislikes her, and that
he harassed her at 11:48 a.m.
He was screaming and upset
because she told his wife that
he was peeping through her
window. There was no crime,
but a deputy instructed the
unprofessional manager on
the proper way to conduct an
eviction.
*A caretaker was having
issues at 1:59 p.m. with a
trespasser who keeps returning
to the 300 block of S. Caves
Avenue. The unwanted visitor
left a bag on the front porch
pending his return.
*Josh Sanders was taken
into custody at 2:36 p.m. at
Stevenson Street and Hussey
Avenue. He was detained at
Josephine County Jail.
*A guy was living in
a house in the 200 block of
Shadywood Drive long after
the homeowner died in 2004.
He opened her mail and sent
money to the USDA Rural
Development Office to protect
the home from foreclosure, and
he was trying to transfer the
house into his name. It was not
deemed an Adult Protective
Services issue, but it seemed
suspicious. At 4:35 p.m., USDA
correspondence indicated that
the guy complied with their
expectations, and that there was
nothing shady going on.
*Medical marijuana
growers in the 1300 block
of Prottsman Way were not
dispensing medicine as required
by their 78-year-old patient.
The grower from Cave Junction
claimed that his ex-girlfriend
took his belongings and the
crop, but the greedy gal was not
responding to phone calls from
the elderly gent. Information
regarding this case was sent
to Oregon Medical Marijuana
Program Public Health
Division.
*A restraining order (RO)
could not be delivered at 4:30
p.m. in the 37400 block of
Redwood Hwy.
*At 4:47 p.m. an
individual in the 1500 block
of Lone Mountain Road was
unavailable.

a hold-up alarm in the 5600
block of Deer Creek Road at
4:55 p.m.

High School, but there were no
issues at 9:21 a.m.
*A guy, a gal and a biting
dog were physically fighting
near the bathrooms in Jubilee
Park at 10:01 a.m. The bully
in a red coat had reportedly
just been released from jail.
The misguided lass with a pink
purse was chasing him towards
Redwood Hwy. She told a
deputy that it was verbal only,
she had no injuries, and she was
going home.
*Both vehicles were
towed after a black 2016 Ford
flatbed truck and a white Ford
Ranger collided at Takilma
Road and Waldo Road at 10:08
a.m.
*On Dec. 4 at 10 p.m., a
man was asleep in the 25000
block of Caves Hwy. when
he heard a crash. He sprang
up from his bed to see what
was the matter, and saw that
someone had broken the dining
room window, valued at $200.
They grabbed a few items off
his desk, then threw them on
his lawn.
*A dog-walker
encountered a thin fellow with
a buzz cut in a green Dodge
pickup truck at the end of S.
Old Stage Road Dec. 11 at 5
p.m. Soon afterwards the dog
owner heard glass breaking
and a car alarm. The Isuzu
Rodeo front window was
smashed, and a rock was in a
pile of glass in the passenger
seat. Sunglasses and a black
leather CD case and 30 CDs
valued at $300 were stolen,
along with brand new Pioneer
oval speakers worth $140. The
green truck was parked again
in the 400 block of Old Stage
Road. A report was filed for
unauthorized entry into a motor
vehicle, second-degree criminal
mischief, and second-degree
theft.

during a 911 hang-up call from
the 5300 block of Deer Creek
Road at 2:25 p.m.

of Redwood Hwy. was
unsuccessful at 2:40 p.m.

3:05 p.m. to an individual in the
37400 block of Redwood Hwy.

disappeared minutes later when
law enforcement arrived.

Road at 5:16 p.m.
Outside the Valley
*Twenty-six entries.
Thursday, Dec. 15
*A visitor from Arkansas
lost her Liz Claiborne wallet
somewhere in Cave Junction,
and her husband hoped
someone might turn it in. His
wife is worried that someone
will steal her identity.
*Oregon State Police
(OSP) sent a fax at 12 p.m.
regarding a silver-colored Ford
that was abandoned in Fry
Gulch, near Waldo Road. The
Ford had been in the water
for at least two days, and was
located on Wood Creek Road.
The report explained that there
was no such road as Wood
Creek Road, but the swamped
Ford could be reached by
making a left on a spur road.

found deceased in the 10000
