4/2/26 - Water Obstruction - Upper McKenzie River At Fish Rock (Photo) - 04/02/26

 
There are two large obstructions on the upper McKenzie River at Highway 126 E milepost 55, in the area of Fish Rock. Multiple tree trunks and smaller debris are mostly blocking the river at two locations. The blockage coordinates are 44.18771, -122.06962.
 
The first obstruction is river right on a straight section and can likely be passed safely.
 
The second obstruction is in the center of the river at a fork, and may or may not be passed safely depending on conditions. There are potentially portage options on river left. Please avoid this section of river or navigate with extreme caution.
 
Lane County Sheriff’s Marine Patrol deputies are coordinating with local organizations for mitigation.

3/21/26 - LCSO Case 26-1417 - Deputies Arrest Menacing Suspect At Spencer Butte Park (Photo) - 03/24/26

 
On March 21st at 7 p.m., Lane County Sheriff’s deputies responded to Spencer Butte Park in the 85300 block of S. Willamette Street, south of Eugene. Callers reported a male had been lying in the roadway, then swung a knife and threw a bottle at them when they attempted to make sure he was okay. He then entered a portable toilet nearby.
 
When deputies arrived, the male, Enrique Larios, 28, of Mount Angel, swung the door open and yelled at them. He was uncooperative, and deputies had to usher parkgoers around the area so they could safely leave. Larios eventually complied with deputies. After additional investigation, he was arrested and lodged at the Lane County Jail for Menacing, Unlawful Use of a Weapon, Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, and Criminal Mischief in the 2nd Degree.
 
Thanks to Oregon State Police for their assistance on this incident.
