We will NEVER ask for money by phone, text, or email.
We will NEVER call you about missed jury duty.
Our community continues to be targeted by phone scammers identifying themselves as employees of the Lane County Sheriff’s Office, typically claiming to be sergeants. Scammers have in the past also used text and email.
Scammers claim there are warrants, missed jury duty, or unsettled legal issues. They may also offer to take bail money so family members in our jail may be released. Scammers then ask for payment or personal information, often threatening arrest. They usually offer to take payment digitally, through cryptocurrency, phone apps, or at a kiosk.
In some instances, the scammers appear to call from official phone numbers or provide fraudulent callback numbers with official-sounding voicemail inboxes. They often already have some personal information based on the phone number they called.
If you are contacted by someone claiming to be a Lane County Sheriff's Office employee and you think you are being scammed, HANG UP.
Then contact our dispatch center at 541-682-4150 opt. 1.
Please share with your friends and family. This scam has been around for years, and people are still falling for it despite efforts by all local law enforcement to educate the public.

🐾🚓 After 8 years of service, it’s time to hang up the leash🚓🐾
Last week, one of our incredible K9 fur missiles retired after 8 years of dedicated service.
K9 Hektor, one of our patrol apprehension canines, has served our community with unmatched courage, loyalty, and heart. From daily patrol shifts to high-risk deployments with our Special Response Team, he was always ready — focused, fearless, and committed to protecting his handler and catching the bad guys.
With more than 200 deployments over the course of his career, Hektor’s impact on our county’s safety is nothing short of extraordinary.
Behind every successful mission was a powerful partnership built on trust and training. His drive and unwavering bravery helped bring dangerous situations to safe conclusions time and time again.
Now, at almost 10 years old, it’s time for him to trade in long shifts and call-outs for belly rubs, naps in the sun, and well-earned relaxation. We hear he may even finally be let up on the couch.
Hektor, thank you for your service.
Enjoy retirement — you’ve more than earned it. 🐕💙Photos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post

Lane County Sheriff’s property crimes detective recovers multiple stolen firearms, suspect outstanding
On January 30th, a homeowner in the 15700 block of Highway 36, Deadwood, reported a burglary. Several firearms and other items were stolen. The Lane County Sheriff’s property crimes detective began investigating the case and soon identified suspects and a vehicle from the victim’s security video.
On February 12th, an Oregon State Police (OSP) detective located the suspect vehicle near Armitage Park north of Eugene. It was occupied by one of the suspects, Tina Jean Devault, 57, of Noti. During a search of the vehicle, detectives located approximately 1 pound of methamphetamine. OSP detectives handled the drug possession investigation.
Devault was arrested and lodged at the Lane County Jail on a Parole Violation warrant from convictions for Possession of Methamphetamine and Cocaine. OSP detectives later added new charges for Possession of Methamphetamine, Possession of Cocaine, and Delivery of Methamphetamine.
Based on information obtained during the investigation, our property crimes detective authored a search warrant for a property in the 21400 block of Highway 126, east of Noti.
Later that evening, deputies assigned to the Lane County Sheriff’s Special Response Team (SRT), Crisis Negotiation Team (CNT), and detectives served a search warrant at the property. The response on Highway 126 during evening commute time was widely shared on social media at the time.
While serving the warrant, a second suspect, Beau Russell Anderson, 38, of Noti, was located in possession of a firearm and arrested. Detectives also located stolen firearms and a stolen vehicle not related to the original burglary case. Anderson was lodged at the Lane County Jail for Burglary in the 2nd Degree, Aggravated Theft in the 1st Degree, Unlawful Use of a Motor Vehicle, Driving While Suspended – Misdemeanor, and Felon in Possession of a Firearm.
The property crimes detective continued following up, and on February 13th, detectives returned to the property with an additional search warrant. During the service of this warrant, detectives located 9 stolen firearms and ammunition that had been stolen in the burglary.
The last suspect, Guy Gilbert Devault, 61, of Noti, is still outstanding, as well as several firearms. Detectives determined Devault was living on a property in the 23000 block of Green Creek Road, and authored a search warrant. Devault was not located during the service of the warrant. Detectives are continuing to investigate the case, but have been unable to locate him or the remaining firearms.
Devault (pictured) is described as a white male, 5’10” tall, 180 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Devault are asked to contact the Lane County Sheriff’s Dispatch at 541-682-4150 option 1.Photos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post

Springfield man arrested after attempted elude in Veneta
On March 1st at 9:30 a.m., Lane County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a report of a vehicle trespassing in the 25100 block of E. Broadway Avenue, Veneta. The vehicle description matched a vehicle that had recently fled from Eugene Police officers. The suspected driver, David Johnathan Guggenmos, 41, of Springfield, had a felony warrant for his arrest.

3/2/26 - Deputies and officers teach, attend Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training
Last week, the Lane County Regional Crisis Intervention Team hosted a 40-hour Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training at the Springfield Police Department and Hillview Baptist Church in Springfield. This regional training is offered to local law enforcement agencies in Lane County.
The Regional Crisis Intervention Team is made up of coordinators from the Lane County Sheriff’s Office, the Eugene Police Department, and the Springfield Police Department. The team is assisted by a steering committee made up of stakeholders in the local mental health community.
The 31 attendees included deputies, dispatchers, and officers assigned to various roles from the Lane County Sheriff’s Office, Springfield Police Department, Eugene Police Department, Oakridge Police Department, Cottage Grove Police Department, and Lane Transit District.
CIT Training consists of classroom instruction to educate participants about mental health, addiction, de-escalation, and alternatives to incarceration. The curriculum includes specific lessons about local resources and programs, commonly encountered mental health conditions, tactical communication strategies, and presentations from community members with lived, first-hand mental health experiences.
The training includes discussions specific to unique communities law enforcement officers may encounter, such as military veterans, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and developmentally disabled individuals. Near the end of the week of training, attendees participate in scenario training based off of real situations. Finally, the training concludes with a segment on officer resilience and mental wellness.
This training provides a solid foundation for local law enforcement to call upon when approaching persons in crisis and to help community members receive the best outcome possible.
