BRIEFLY Oregon refuge occupier jailed amid mental health concerns PORTLAND (AP) — A federal judge has revoked the release of a man convicted of conspiracy during last-year’s armed occupation of a wildlife refuge in Oregon. The Oregonian/OregonLive reportst that Darryl Thorn was taken into custody Wednesday. The judge recommended he undergo a mental health evaluation because of concerns about suicidal threats he had made. Thorn was convicted in March of conspiracy to impede federal offi cers along with other charges. He had been freed pending his sentencing in November. Defense lawyer Jay Nelson says Thorn never meant to hurt himself or others. He says Thorn has had trouble fi nding work and a place to live after moving from Spokane, Washington, to the small eastern Oregon town of Monument in June. Assistant U.S. Attorney Craig Gabriel says Thorn represents a danger to himself and others. Military aircraft called to help battle blazes in U.S. West BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Two military aircraft will help detect and map wildfi res in the U.S. West. The National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, on Wednesday says the Air National Guard aircraft will be based in eastern Washington state and western Oregon. Offi cials say the twin-engine, propeller-driven aircraft are equipped with infrared sensors that can map wildfi res and give fi re managers information that can help with strategy.

Copyright © 2017, EO Media Group Members of the Harl Butte wolf pack killed another calf Aug. 16, prompting state Department of Fish and Wildlife managers to decide to remove two more wolves in an attempt to stop the depredations. Wallowa County rancher Todd Nash said a calf was grazing on a private pasture he leases when the latest attack occurred. He said the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife investigated. Department offi cials said the attack was confi rmed as a wolf kill and managers will shoot two more pack members. The department shot two of the pack’s adult wolves after a series of attacks on cattle earlier this year. Nash and other ranchers have called for the entire pack to be killed. He said the pack goes after cattle every day and has not changed its behavior. Amaroq Weiss, wolf advocate with the Center for Biological Diversity, criticized the decision to kill wolves from the Harl Butte pack as frustrating and puzzling. “Oregon’s wildlife offi cials just don’t get it,” Weiss said in a statement. “Research clearly shows that killing wolves doesn’t reduce confl icts with livestock and can actually make the problems worse.” -0s Federal offi cials last week raised the National Fire Preparedness Level to its highest point, opening the way for assistance from the military. Offi cials say that about 50 large wildfi res are burning in eight western states on about 430 square miles. Dan Buckley of the National Multi-Agency Coordinating Group that deploys the nation’s wildland fi refi ghting resources says the aircraft will help managers decide where to send fi refi ghters. Missing woman hoisted to safety on rugged Oregon coast FLORENCE (AP) — Coast Guard and other crews have rescued a missing Oregon woman near the Sea Lion Caves on Oregon’s rugged central coast. The Dallas woman had been missing since Saturday and was located by her husband. The Register-Guard reports that a helicopter crew hoisted the woman off a cliff above the Pacifi c Ocean Wednesday afternoon. Dallas Police Lt. Jerry Mott says Heather Mounce Davison was rescued near where her car was found abandoned along the side of Highway 101 in Florence over the weekend. Fire Chief Jim Langborg of Siuslaw Valley Fire & Rescue says she had minor injuries and was taken to a local hospital in stable condition. He says her husband found her and called 911. The 37-year-woman was reported missing by her family when she stopped communicating with a family member Saturday. They traced her phone to Florence and had been searching in the area for her.
