ONTARIO (AP) —
Deputies who responded
to a burned vehicle in a
remote area of southeastern
Oregon found a body
inside.
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.
The Argus Observer
reports a Bureau of Land
Management employee
reported seeing the
burned-out car Tuesday
night, but did not examine
it. Wolfe says deputies

Officials suspect the
bloom formed because of
increased rainwater this
winter and spring after
several years of drought.
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.

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.

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.
