Sheriff Brian Wolfe of Malheur County says it’s unknown whether the burned body is male or female, or where the person may be from. The license plates and vehicle identification number melted and no missing person reports have been filed.

Losing 32 cattle “is relatively devastating” for producers, said Pete Schreder, an OSU Extension livestock agent. Death can come up to 72 hours after initial exposure. “There is no treatment available,” said Dr. Rod Ferry, a veterinarian at Lakeview Animal Hospital. U.S. judge orders documents sealed in case against FBI agent Burned body found in car near Nevada state line 60s National Summary: Storms will bring the risk of localized flooding and damaging winds from the central Rockies to the mid-Atlantic coast today. Storms will dot the Southeast. Much of the West can expect a sunny day. Copyright © 2017, EO Media Group PORTLAND (AP) — A federal judge says government documents from a case against an FBI agent will remain sealed to protect the identities of other law enforcement officers involved in a deadly confrontation with one of the people who occupied a remote Oregon wildlife refuge last year. Government attorneys in Oregon requested the move Tuesday in their case against FBI agent W. Joseph Astarita. Astarita has pleaded not guilty to lying about shooting at a key figure in last year’s armed occupation of a national wildlife refuge. Robert “LaVoy” Finicum was a spokesman for the group that took over the refuge to oppose federal control of land in the Western U.S. Oregon State Police fatally shot Finicum when he got out of a vehicle on Jan. 26, 2016 and reached toward a handgun. Investigators also found FBI agents at the scene failed to disclose they had also fired rounds that missed. 50s Oregon man told to finish college before serving jail Oregon State Police via AP Eel Niño strikes Oregon Coast DEPOE BAY (AP) — A truck hauling eels overturned on an Oregon highway, turning the coastal road into a slimy mess. Oregon State Police on Thursday posted a photo on Twitter that showed damaged cars covered by the gooey eels. The agency also posed the question: “What to tell the #drycleaner?” Meanwhile, the Depoe Bay Fire Department posted a video of workers using a bulldozer to clear the eels from Highway 101. Police said Salvatore Tragale was driving north with 13 containers holding 7,500 pounds of hagfish, which are commonly known as slime eels. hours-long drive sooner if it was known there was a body. The Oregon State Fire Marshal joined the investigation Thursday as authorities try to determine the cause of fire and the ignition source. Wolfe says it may have been a suicide, but there are still a lot of questions. OSUto build nation’s newest research vessel CORVALLIS (AP) — Oregon State University is leading the effort to build the nation’s next class of research vessels to advance ocean science. The university received nearly $122 million from the National Science Foundation to lead construction of the first of three ships for the U.S. Academic Research Fleet. The grant is the largest in the university’s history. The vessels will advance research in the coastal regions of the United States and Alaska. The first ship will support research missions along the U.S. West Coast with later vessels dedicated to other regions. OSU officials say the new vessels will help scientists better understand rising sea levels, ocean acidification, declining fisheries, offshore energy and other issues. The ship will be equipped with advanced equipment, including sensors to detect harmful algal blooms and changing ocean chemistry. The university is expected to begin operating the vessel in 2021. As Tragale approached road construction and tried to stop, one container flew off the truck bed and into the southbound lane, while the other containers spilled onto the highway, police said. The flying container hit one vehicle which then caused it and four other vehicles to be pushed into each other. Police said the people in the vehicle hit by the container suffered minor injuries. No one else was injured. When hagfish become stressed, they secrete a slime, which can be seen in the photos on the vehicles and on the highway, police said. The road reopened after the bulldozing and hosing it off was completed Thursday afternoon. Blue-green algae outbreak kills 32 cattle in Oregon LAKEVIEW (AP) — A blue-green algae outbreak in an Oregon reservoir has killed 32 cattle. The outbreak began about a month ago on KV Bar Ranch, the Capital Press reported. Concern rose when ranchers started seeing cattle with blue legs, ranch owner John Shine said. “We had a reservoir that cattle have been drinking out of for 60 years, and never had a problem. Then this breeze comes from the north and carried this layer of scum 3 to 4 feet from the edge and that’s what they were drinking,” he said. “We thought it was poison at first. We didn’t know what it was.” Theo Dreher, a microbiology professor at Oregon State University, said it’s rather unusual to lose 32 cattle in “one hit.” “It’s probably not infrequent in cases of ranch land cattle where a few stock die, but this is pretty exceptional, and points out the danger that does exist when you get one of these blooms,” Dreher said. Blue-green algae are bacteria that occur naturally in many fresh and still waters. The toxin can affect both animals and people.

EUGENE (AP) — A 44-year-old Oregon man has been sentenced to two years in federal prison for scamming 91 eBay customers out of more than $189,000. But The Bend Bulletin reports that before Erik William Johnson spends time behind bars, he’ll be allowed to finish his studies at Central Oregon Community College. U.S. District Court Judge Ann Aiken ordered Johnson remain out of custody until September 2018. Johnson pleaded guilty to money laundering. He launched his eBay scheme over a three-week period in June 2011. Court records show he received nearly $190,000 in payments, but only shipped $5,245 worth of Nikon and Canon cameras to customers. He used the money to buy a 2006 Hummer H2 sport utility vehicle, a 2006 Volkswagen Beetle and a Breitling Aeromarine Super Avenger watch. M-F DRIVE - IN FM/AM RADIO SOUND GATES OPEN AT 7:30 P.M.
