10/25/25 - Deputies, K9 arrest Blachly man after assault, house fire On October 25th at about 3 p.m., Lane County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the 20200 block of Highway 36, Blachly, for a report of an assault. Deputies contacted victims and witnesses and learned that Darin Dwayne Watson, 60, of Blachly, had assaulted two people with batons and then menaced them with an axe. Deputies attempted to contact Watson, however he responded by throwing items at them from his residence. Deputies deployed an armored rescue vehicle and drone to maintain contact with Watson from a safe distance. After several hours of negotiation, Watson lit his house of fire, which quickly became engulfed. Watson ran out of the home and attempted to escape. A deputy deployed K9 Tito, who apprehended Watson in a carport next to the burning residence. He continued to fight with deputies and the K9, even as the nearby intense flames and heat quickly grew. Watson was arrested and transported to an area hospital for medical care, then lodged at the Lane County Jail on the following charges: - Unlawful Use of a Weapon - Two counts of Assault in the 4th Degree - Two counts of Menacing - Resisting Arrest - Interfering with a Law Enforcement Animal Additional charges related to the fire may be considered. Thanks to Lane Fire Authority and Lake Creek Fire for their assistance with this incident.Photos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post

10/24/25 - Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue assists several lost subjects, still searching for missing Oakridge man Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue (SAR) continues to search for Jean Fritz Pierre Louis, 76, of Oakridge, who went missing early last week in the Salmon Creek area east of Oakridge. Yesterday, searchers rappelled into areas difficult to reach safely on foot and continued searching areas with dense vegetation. Linn County Sheriff’s SAR has also continued to assist with the search. However, searchers have also responded with deputies to several other lost subject calls. Many of the volunteers that assisted with these rescues responded despite already working all day on assignments searching for Louis. Please follow these tips to stay safe when you explore the outdoors in our county: ⛰️ Always tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return. 🌨️ Know conditions before you leave - rain in the valley can mean ice up high! 🏕️ Be prepared to stay out overnight - even if you don't plan to get out of your car. 🗺️ Bring maps for offline navigation - cell service can be spotty! 🌊 If you go on the water, ALWAYS wear a life jacket! On October 22nd at about 8 p.m., SAR responded to a report of an overdue mushroom picker in the McGowan Creek area east of Marcola who had not been heard from for about five hours. They searched until early morning from his last known location. Additional volunteers took over the search in the morning, and located the subject at about 10 a.m. They were able to assist him back to his vehicle. On October 23rd, at about 2 a.m., SAR responded to the area of Big River Road, south of Cottage Grove, for two lost mushroom pickers, one of whom was injured. A family member was in contact with them from across a canyon, but could not get to them. SAR personnel were able to locate the involved and assisted them back to their vehicles where they were checked by medics. At about 8 p.m., a passerby reported people yelling for a person at the Fern Ridge Wildlife Viewing Area west of Eugene. Deputies learned an adult male and a juvenile were overdue from a hike and did not have a phone. SAR responded, and located the involved about 3 hours later. The subjects were guided back to the parking lot. On October 24th at about 3 a.m., SAR responded to assist a female who had been left on the side of a road by her camping partner in the area of Big Creek Road, north of Minerva. Volunteers were able to locate the female two and a half hours later and transported her to Florence. Want to be a part of this amazing work? We are recruiting adult Search & Rescue volunteers! Learn more at our last open house THIS SATURDAY, Oct. 25th at 6 p.m. at Harris Hall, 125 E 8th Ave., Eugene. We are looking for adults who have positive attitudes and want to serve their community. Volunteers must be willing to respond any time day or night, often in bad weather and extreme conditions. Volunteers who attend our SAR academy will become Oregon State SAR Certified, and receive training in medical care, orienteering, outdoor survival, and other important skills. Questions?

❗❗❗ SCAM ALERT ❗❗❗ The Lane County Sheriff’s Office will NEVER ask for money by phone, text, or email. We will NEVER call you about missed jury duty. Phone scammers continue posing as law enforcement to steal from Lane County residents. We have received many recent reports of an old phone scam. Victims receive a call from someone claiming to be a deputy or sergeant from our office - using a real deputy's name. The scammer informs the victim they failed to appear for court or grand jury, and now has a warrant for their arrest. To "avoid arrest," the victim is instructed to pay - usually by BitCoin or other digital payment. Due to the use of Bitcoin, VPN phone numbers, and out-of-state suspects, these cases are typically unsolvable. This type of scam is very common, and we receive reports of similar scam callers almost every day (thankfully with no money lost in most cases). Scammers often have official-sounding voicemail inboxes, have victims’ personal information, and attempt to be intimidating over the phone. Their numbers on caller ID may even appear to be ours. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office will NEVER ask for money by phone, text, or email. We will NEVER call you about missed jury duty. If you are contacted by someone claiming to be a Lane County Sheriff's Office employee and you think you are being scammed, please hang up and contact our dispatch center at 541-682-4141. If you are a victim of a phone or internet scam, report the incident to the FBI at www.ic3.gov. PLEASE SHARE THIS POST! And share this info with your friends and family!
