Sgt. Julia Denney of the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office says 33-year-old Christopher Grindstaff of Central Point turned himself in after hearing about the case online. He’s charged with criminal mischief. The victim told authorities Tuesday that his personal drone had been shot down while flying over a popular recreation area. He posted photos and video of the incident on Facebook, and later provided deputies with images taken by the drone. Denney says the weapon was a high-velocity air rifle that fired .177 caliber pellet ammunition. SALEM (AP) — After walking through the door of a home in Oregon, federal immigration officers acknowledged they didn’t have a warrant. Still, they refused to heed requests to leave until they arrested a man who was inside and had been helping remodel the house. The incident Thursday in a Portland suburb was caught on camera by the man’s co-worker and generated an outcry in the Latino commu- nity. Oregon’s two U.S. senators denounced the agents’ actions. Rep. Diego Hernandez, a Democrat representing Portland in the Oregon House of Representa- tives, tweeted: “They had no warrant, ICE is out of line.” The man, identified by the senators as Carlos Bolanos, was released after the video was posted on Facebook. ICE is reviewing its officers’ actions and has referred the incident to its Office of Professional Responsibility and to the inspector general of ICE’s parent organization, the Department of Homeland Security, ICE spokeswoman Yasmeen Pitts O’Keefe said in an email. The video shows signif- icant wrongdoing by the federal officers, said Mat Dos Santos, legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon. It also reflects a disturbing trend by ICE in targeting people for deportation while agents are dressed in plainclothes and not identifying themselves, Dos Santos added. “It’s all too common. We see it time and time again where ICE officers actively engaged in pursuing someone show up in plain clothes, don’t display badges, and get incredibly aggressive when met with natural shock by those they are targeting,” Dos Santos said. George Cardenas began shooting the video after two of the federal agents entered the house near Portland that The Hermiston Junior Academy students, faculty, school board, and Foundation Board of Directors wish to thank the following individuals and businesses for their kind and generous support of Christian Education in our community.

Christian is accused of killing two passengers and wounding a third on a light-rail train. Prosecutors say he stabbed the men May 26 after initially yelling hateful comments at two black teenage girls, one of whom was wearing an Islamic head covering called a hijab. KOIN-TV asked for the search warrant affidavit to be unsealed, contending the public has a legitimate interest in knowing the actions of those responsible for the investigation. Multnomah County Judge Cheryl Albrecht denied the request Friday, saying Christian’s right to a fair trial outweighed that concern. Christian has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder and other crimes. At Friday’s hearing, he yelled: “If I’m a white supremacist, why’d I vote for Bernie Sanders?” Hi 61 43 57 57 48 46 60 56 60 51 49 47 44 58 58 60 46 56 58 60 59 60 44 48 60 56 53 NATIONAL WEATHER TODAY Sun.

An agent is heard asking off-camera for Bolanos’ ID. When asked why, the agent responds: “Because I have reason to believe you’re not in the country legally.” Cardenas then asks the agents for a warrant. “We don’t need a warrant to come in this home,” the agent says. Then Cardenas points his cellphone camera at two of the agents inside the house, a man and a woman who refuse to give their names. “Honestly, I don’t think you guys should even be in here,” Cardenas tells them. “You’re basically trespassing at this moment, right now.” Bolanos tries to call the homeowner but can’t reach her. In the video, the agents insist that Cardenas invited them inside, which he denies. After seven minutes, the agents surround Bolanos while he is talking on a cellphone. They take the phone from one hand and a paintbrush from another as an agent warns him not to resist. They cuff his hands behind his back and put him into a car. U.S. Sens Ron Wyden and Jeffrey Merkley said in a letter Friday to Elizabeth Godfrey, deputy director in Portland of ICE’s enforce- ment and removal operations, that the incident is “deeply troubling.” The Democratic senators asked for results of any reviews of the incident, an explanation of policies that led to Bolanos’ arrest, and for measures that may be undertaken to “correct inappropriate and potentially unlawful behavior” shown by agents in this and other incidents. Cardenas said Bolanos has four children in Oregon, and that they’re all US citizens. Activists have said that aggressive enforcement of immigration laws will tear such families apart. ng Our Sponsors i k n a h T HERMISTON JUNIOR ACADEMY!!!
