1/12/26 - Drivers run from traffic stops in River Road area twice in a shift, one arrested   
  
On January 12th at 10:46 a.m., a Lane County Sheriff’s deputy initiated a traffic stop of a vehicle at River Road and Greenleaf Avenue, Eugene. The driver stopped and immediately fled on foot, damaging a resident’s property as he ran through back yards. Deputies and Eugene Police responded, set a perimeter, and began searching the area.    
  
The driver was not located, but was later identified as Shane Lyle Clarke, 28, of Eugene (pictured). Clarke also has a warrant for his arrest from the Oregon State Parole Board for Assaulting a Public Safety Officer.    
  
Another driver fled on foot from a traffic stop on Hatton Avenue, Eugene, at 1:30 p.m., initiating a perimeter and search. That driver was later arrested.    
  
Deputies were in contact with area schools during these incidents out of an abundance of caution.    
  
Clarke is described as a white male adult, 5’11” tall and 160 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. He has a distinctive “1998” tattoo above his left eyebrow. Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Clarke is asked to contact Dispatch at 541-682-4150 option 1. Please reference case 26-0175.Photos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post Featured News by Lane County Sheriff
