Keizer police offi cers execut-
ed a search warrant on the
house that resulted in ousting
a pair of sisters and their chil-
dren, among others, who were
squatting inside.
“Last month, (the Com-
munity Response Unit) be-
gan receiving complaints from
neighbors and patrol offi cers
regarding this house. The com-
plaints described a high vol-
ume of foot traffi c, noise at
night, garbage piling up and
suspicious people loitering in
and around the location,” said
Sgt. Robert Trump.
In the process of investigat-
ing the situation, police offi -
cials learned that the home –
which is only several hundred
yards south of Gubser Elemen-
tary School – was a foreclosure
owned by Deutsche Bank.
The women who appeared
to be the full-time residents
– Stephanie Kahler, 37, and
Jenny Kahler, 41 – were con-
tacted and interviewed. Police
told the women they needed
to leave or face arrest, but they
remained.
