Monday, Feb. 6
*California Highway
Patrol tried to locate the
owner of a 1993 Ford F150
that was found in a lake. Folks
in the 100 block of Enchanted
Way said they sold the truck
to some guy living in Califor-
nia, but his phone was discon-
nected. (Or waterlogged.)
*A hostile parent was
screaming at the vice-prin-
cipal of Illinois Valley High
School at 10:40 a.m. She was
trespassed, and cannot return
until she is given written
permission.
*Two very aggressive
pit-bulls were trying to bite
people near the Illinois Valley
Golf Course at 12:03 p.m.
Both dogs were coaxed into a
patrol vehicle, and they were
reunited with their owners.
Josephine County Animal
Control provided citations.
*A listless motorist in
a maroon older-model station
wagon was driving erratically
on Lister Street at 12:24 p.m.
*A gal in the 27700
block of Redwood Hwy. did
not appreciate her ex-husband
trespassing in her living room
at 12:36 p.m. The dispatcher
could hear them screaming,
and the situation escalated
when it sounded like he was
breaking items in the back-
ground. He left before law
enforcement arrived. The ex-
wife was given information
regarding restraining orders.
*The driver of a Chevy
Camaro was warned for
expired registration on Laurel
Road and E. River Street at
2:13 p.m.
*At 2:20 p.m. a chap on
Laurel Road and Caves Hwy.
was warned for the cracked
front window in his white
Ford pickup truck.
*A deputy pulled
over a blue Honda at 112 S.
Redwood Hwy. at 2:30 p.m.
Corey Reid General was cited
on a warrant for driving under
the influence of intoxicants.
*A red vehicle rolled
over into a front yard in the
1800 block of Laurel Road at
2:48 p.m. The driver gave his
Oregon driver’s license in-
formation to the home owner,
since there was more than
$500 damage to the fence.
*The operator of a
maroon Toyota Tacoma was
warned for speeding 60 in a
45 mph zone at 2131 Laurel
Road at 3:20 p.m.
Outside the Valley
*Twenty-one incidents.
Tuesday, Feb. 7
*A 67-year-old man
was found deceased in the
6300 block of Lakeshore
Drive at 9:02 a.m.
*Two up-to-no-good
guys entered a vacant build-
ing in the 300 block of Millie
Street at 9:08 a.m. An alert
neighbor confronted three
young men when they left the
WHERE’S
THE ALARM?
house and asked what they
were doing, but they ignored
her and walked away. Law
enforcement officers caught
and tasered one of the trio of
trouble-makers. Cody Lee
Weaver, 26, was detained at
Josephine County Jail on a
warrant for failure to ap-
pear for dangerous drugs and
unauthorized use of a vehicle.
Additional charges included
possession of meth, resist-
ing arrest, and second-degree
criminal trespass.
*On Feb. 4 between
5-5:30 p.m., a silver-colored
Toyota 4x4 pickup truck was
damaged while parked in
the 100 block of Deer Creek
Road. The passenger rear
quarter panel was dented
and scratched, apparently by
another vehicle’s bumper. An
incident number was provided
for insurance purposes.
*The noise com-
plaints continued from the
9300 block of Takilma Road
because a dude in a school
bus played his electric guitar
between 9-11 p.m.
*At 3:30 a.m. on Feb.
4, SOS reported an alarm
in the 600 block of E. River
Street. The signal came from
the Illinois Valley High
School van parking cage off
the weight room. Chains to
both gates had been cut, but
nothing else seemed amiss. A
report was filed for theft and
criminal mischief.
*Two surveillance
cameras were stolen from 213
S. Redwood Hwy. between
3-3:30 a.m. on Feb. 6. The
theft was recorded on a com-
puter, and the hoodlum wore
a hoodie with large darker
stripes, and white sneakers
with a dark line around the
toe area. The thief cut a lock
and chain-link fence to gain
access. A report was filed
for second-degree theft and
mischief.
*On Feb. 1, between
6:53-7:15 p.m., a couple
ordered food at the Dairy
Queen drive-through. They
drank three shakes, but be-
came impatient because their
meals were not ready. They
were offered a refund if they
didn’t want to wait, but then
they were upset because their
drinks weren’t free. The cone-
heads left, but one threatened
to return and “kill them all,”
so a DQ employee called his
mother. (No more blizzards
for them.)
*SOS reported an alarm
in the 6100 block of Takilma
Road at 10:56 a.m.
*An older-model blue
Lincoln with a vinyl top was
parked in a church parking lot
in the 400 block of S. Junction
Avenue for several days. It
appeared that a tall, unshaven
fellow and his small brown
and white dog may have been
living out of the car. A citizen
was concerned that recent
break-ins at a nearby food
bank might be related to this
character. The Lincoln was
last seen heading northbound
on Hwy. 199.
*Video camera footage
in the Diggin’ Livin’ parking
lot recorded a dark blue 2000
Chevy SUV that backed into
a silver-colored 2007 Nissan
truck between 12:15-1:30 a.m.
on Feb. 6. The Nissan sus-
tained a damaged rear bumper
and dented side.
*A deputy went to
Lorna Byrne Middle School at
11:51 a.m. Drug paraphernalia
was seized for disposal.
*There was a report
of a dead person in the 8600
block of Takilma Road.
*Shuffling and faint
voices, but no disturbance was
heard during a 911 call from
the 3300 block of Caves Hwy.
at 1:01 p.m.
*At 4:05 p.m. a guy
reported that he lost his
vehicle after he was evicted
from the 600 block of Sher-
wood Avenue in 2012 due to
a restraining order. He didn’t
have an answer as to why he
waited five years to report
the crime, or why he made no
prior attempts to recover the
vehicle.
*A restraining order
was served to an individual on
Pinewood Way at 4 p.m.
Outside the Valley
*Thirty-four situations.
Wednesday, Feb. 8
*The driver refused
medical attention, but a tow
truck was necessary follow-
ing a rollover crash at 10:29
a.m. on Redwood Hwy. at
Briggs Valley Road. The post
and sign for Onion Mountain
Road Lookout was damaged.
*A traffic stop involv-
ing a green Cadillac in the
25000 block of Redwood
Hwy. at 11:08 a.m. resulted
in an arrest. Cari Lee Ginevra,
29, was detained on a state-
wide felony warrant for
failure to appear and unau-
thorized use of a vehicle.
*At 11:30 a.m., a
deputy made the rounds of W.
River Street and Daily Hill
Road.
*A driver walked away
from a vehicle at S. Redwood
Hwy. and Caves Hwy. at
11:55 a.m.
*Law enforcement pa-
trolled Madrona Drive and S.
Old Stage Road at 11:59 a.m.
*A deputy stopped a
green Lincoln in the 25000
block of Redwood Hwy. at
12:35 p.m.
*An aggressive pit
bull was trying to bite tires
and stopping traffic in the
400 block of W. River Street
at 1:14 p.m. The canine was
contained, and its residence
was flagged as having an ag-
gressive dog that will bite.
*There was a vehicle
with switched license plates
in the 100 block of S. Hussey
Avenue at 1:32 p.m. The
deputy educated the driver
that the Department of Motor
Vehicles does not allow folks
to just put any plate on which-
ever vehicle that they choose
to drive that day. (The green
tree brings out the highlights
on the bumper.)
*A white Mercedes has
been parked for three weeks
near the Eight Dollar Bridge
River Access.
Outside the Valley
*Twenty entries.
