Easley (43) On February 14th, 2026, at about 11:58 p.m., a Coos County Sheriff’s Deputy attempted to conduct a traffic stop of a green 2024 Kawasaki motorcycle for speeding well in excess of the posted 55-mph speed limit on U.S. Hwy 101 near Upper Four Mile Lane. The motorcycle fled from the Deputy, and a pursuit was initiated. The motorcycle turned onto Bethel Mountain Road, south of Bandon, and then onto Marple Lane. The motorcycle continued to flee from the pursuing deputy, catching air over potholes on the muddy Lane due to excessive speed. The operator of the motorcycle, later identified as JD W. Easley (43), eventually crashed into a dirt bank and began to flee on foot. The deputy chased Mr. Easley on foot, caught and tackled him, and placed Mr. Easley under arrest. Once in custody, it was learned Mr. Easley had an outstanding warrant for his arrest, which was confirmed. Mr. Easley was also charged with Attempting to Elude by Vehicle, Attempting to Elude by Foot, and Reckless Driving.
