6/23/26 - Missing person found deceased in south Lane County    
  
At about 1:30pm on June 22nd, the Lane County Sheriff’s Office was notified Marjorie Ann Gray’s vehicle was located in the Mosby Creek Area, east of Cottage Grove. Her vehicle was found by people working in the area. Gray had been listed as missing since June 17th.     
  
Lane County Sheriff’s deputies and Search & Rescue (SAR) personnel responded. Gray’s vehicle had become stuck in the trees at the end of a gravel logging road, more than ten miles behind a private gate. SAR volunteers deployed ground crews and were aided by an OSP search canine. Gray was found deceased several hundred yards from her vehicle in steep terrain.   
  
This case is still being investigated, but there is no indication of any crime at this time.    
  
The Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the Oregon State Police, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, and the Lorane community members who came out to assist in the search. Featured News by Lane County Sheriff

06-23-2026  UPDATED PRESS RELEASE  
  
On 06-23-26 at about 12:35pm, two Curry County Deputies assisted by one Oregon State Trooper and six U.S. Marshals, located a wanted fugitive camping in heavy wooded area near Lucas Lodge in Agness, Oregon.  Kenneth Leatherwood had fled from Curry County law enforcement on 06-16-26 after it was learned that he and the stolen vehicle he was operating was in the Agness area.  Leatherwood was wanted out of Texas on a felony warrant for child sex crimes. After a long week of searching, Leatherwood was located and taken into custody without incident.  Leatherwood’s dog was found in good shape and will be returned to Leatherwood’s family.    
  
The Curry County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank all the law enforcement agencies that took part in the search and capture of Leatherwood.  Those agencies include the Oregon State Police, their SWAT team and the U.S. Marshals. We would also like to express our thanks to the Agness community and beyond for their diligence, cooperation and patience. Featured News by Curry County Sheriff
