Early-Morning House Fire in Empire District December 17, 2025 – Coos Bay firefighters responded to a house fire at 1450 Holloway Mews in the Empire District at approximately 3:00 a.m. on Wednesday, December 17, 2025. First-arriving crews found heavy smoke coming from the rear of the structure and flames coming from the roof. As hose lines were deployed to the back of the home, the deck area was fully involved and fire had extended into the main portion of the house. Firefighters quickly achieved an initial knockdown within minutes. Design features of the house created challenges during overhaul, with multiple ceiling voids concealing hot spots that required additional time to fully extinguish. No injuries were reported. Coos Bay Fire was assisted through an automatic aid agreement with Charleston Fire. Bay Cities Ambulance and Pacific Power also assisted at the scene. The cause of the fire was determined to be an electrical failure involving an exterior appliance. Estimated damage to the home and contents is approximately $600,000. If you would like any additional information about this fire, contact the fire department at 541-269-1191. Featured News by City of Coos Bay

12/14/25 - Deputies will be working DUI overtime during the holidays The Lane County Sheriff’s Office does not have a dedicated traffic team or deputy assigned to DUI enforcement due to lack of funding.

December through January 1st, deputies will be conducting targeted DUI enforcement on state grant-funded overtime, including overtime patrols during and after the UO football game on December 20th. Please don’t be their next traffic stop! 🚙 Plan your safe ride home ahead of time 🍺 If you drink or use drugs, do not drive for any reason 🔑 If you know someone has been drinking or using drugs, don't let them drive 💃 If you host a party with alcohol, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver 👍 And please, always wear your seatbelt! Drive safe this holiday season! Last week, deputies arrested two impaired drivers. We hope that’s a sign people are making good choices. On Monday, December 8th just before midnight, a deputy observed a vehicle driving poorly in the area of Highway 126 and Territorial Road, Veneta. The deputy initiated a traffic stop and contacted the driver, Cesar Figuero Mendoza, 47, of Eugene. The deputy observed signs Mendoza was impaired.
