Keizer Police Department is investigating an incident involving gunfi re at a south Keizer bar. On Saturday, Aug. 20, 2016 at 2:38 a.m., KPD offi cers re- sponded to the Tequila Nights Bar & Grill, 3393 River Road North, on a report of several gunshots being fi red in the parking lot after the conclu- sion of a concert that was headlined by Lil Rob. Upon offi cers arrival, they located a 1999 Volkswagen Jetta four-door in the park- ing lot that had been struck by multiple rounds of gun- fi re. The initial investigation indicates a male suspect, possi- bly wearing red, fl ed from the shooting scene on foot. The suspect was last seen by wit- nesses running westbound away from the bar on Apple- blossom Drive North. Inves- tigating offi cers did not locate any persons who were struck by gunfi re and no injuries were reported. Keizer offi cers were as- sisted by deputies and offi - cers from the Marion County Sheriff ’s Offi ce and the Sa- lem Police Department who helped secure the crime scene and search for the suspect. A K-9 was also deployed, but the suspect was not identifi ed or apprehended. The incident remains un- der investigation. Anyone having any information is asked to contact Det. Ben Howden at 503-390-3713, ext. 3525. KEIZERTIMES/Eric A. Howald Gunfi re damaged a vehicle outside Tequila Nights Bar & Grill on Saturday, Aug. 20, but there were no injuries. Double-dipping robber gets 11 years By ERIC A. HOWALD Of the Keizertimes Keizer’s One Stop Smoke Shop was robbed twice by an armed man earlier this year, and he’s headed to prison for 11 years after pleading guilty to the crimes in court Mon- day, Aug. 22. Earl Creemedicine, 33 of Stanwood, Wash., was arrested on July 12 after a traffi c stop when Keizer Police Depart- ment Sgt. Jeff Goodman spot- ted a vehicle believed to have been involved in a robbery that occurred in Salem. Creemedicine pleaded guilty to three counts of sec- ond-degree armed robbery, unlawful use of a weapon and attempted unlawful use of a weapon. Creemedicine was charged in connection to 11 robberies between March and July, but several were dismissed as part of his guilty plea. KPD Det. Andrew Phelps had investigated an armed robbery at the One Stop Smoke Shop on March 21. When Phelps responded to the report of a second rob- bery on July 11, he and Of- fi cer Kevin DeMarco had an himself in a room and called opportunity to review video police.

Extra patrols on road through Labor Day Labor Day weekend is fast approaching and with it end- of-summer parties. The gath- erings bring family and friends together, which also means some time behind the wheel. Despite laws and millions of dollars spent on education, the problem of impaired driv- ing and unrestrained occupants still exists. It makes Labor Day weekend being one of the deadliest weekends to travel. The Keizer Police Depart- looking back in the KT 5 YEARS AGO State board: City must reconsider big box The Land Use Board of Appeals ordered the Keizer City Council to reconsider its decision allowing a big box retailer and other mixed use buildings in Keizer Station. Keep Keizer Livable, a neighborhood group fi led the appeal against the City of Keizer and developers. 10 YEARS AGO Mobile home park tenants ready to fi ght for protections Berkshire Estates, a manufactured home park that the owners recently closed has residents fearful of losing their homes. Barbara Clement, a resident, has appealed to Keizer City Council to take up legislation for an ordinance that requires park owners to pay renter’s moving costs or a fair market price for their abandoned homes when closing a park. 15 YEARS AGO Helmet protects boy during car versus bike collision Justin Beers, a 12-year-old Keizer boy escaped serious head injuries in a car-bicycle collision by wearing his bike helmet. The impact catapulted the boy headlong onto the pavement but his helmet was strapped on tight. The boy received minor injuries for scrapes and was treated at the scene. 20 YEARS AGO Dozing in park baffl es city offi cials Someone took a bulldozer into River’s Edge Park, clearing brush and plants out of about an acre of ground and no one knows who did it or why. The park is on the banks of the Willamette River off Rivercrest Drive in the south end of Keizer. ment rolled out extra patrols beginning Monday, Aug. 22, and will continue through La- bor Day weekend. The offi cers’ primary focus will be looking for impaired drivers. In addi- tion, offi cers will also be con- centrating on vehicles with unrestrained occupants, drivers who are using mobile commu- nication devices and speeders. Another dangerous driving habit that is not talked about as often as the DUII or the non-seatbelted occupant, is the fatigued driver. According to an article in the US News & World Report some research has shown, “volunteers who hadn’t slept for nearly 20 hours had response speeds that were 50 percent lower than well- rested folks on some cognitive tests; their performance was blood-alcohol content of 0.05 percent, which is approaching the legal limit.” Here are some signs from the National Sleep Founda- tion that would suggest a driver needs to stop and rest: • Diffi culty focusing, fre- quent blinking, or heavy eyelids • Daydreaming; wandering/ disconnected thoughts. • Trouble remembering the last few miles driven; missing exits or traffi c signs. • Yawning repeatedly or rub- bing your eyes. • Trouble keeping your head up. • Drifting from your lane, tailgating, or hitting a shoulder rumble strip. • Feeling restless and irri- table. local weather sudoku Enter digits from 1-9 into the blank spaces.
