Water Obstruction: Willamette River below Clearwater Landing (Photo) – 09/03/23

Anyone insistent on floating this section of the river are cautioned to stay as far river left as possible and consider portaging (exiting the river) when passing the hazard.

On 08/24/2023 at 2:00pm, a Lane County Sheriff’s Deputy working within a housing unit at the Lane County Jail discovered a male adult-in-custody (AIC) unresponsive in his cell during hourly checks. His last check had been completed at 1:00pm. The male had a ligature tied around his neck and was unconscious and not breathing. The deputy removed the ligature and immediately began life-saving efforts. Emergency medical assistance arrived and despite continued life-saving efforts the male did not survive.
Detectives along with the Lane County Medical Examiner’s Office responded to the scene and began an investigation. All indications at this point are that the male died as the result of apparent suicide. Investigators with the Medical Examiner’s Office are continuing the investigation into the official cause of his death. A post-mortem examination is scheduled for today.
The male is identified as 33-year-old Joshua William Cates. Cates was convicted in June in the Lane County Circuit Court for Sex Abuse in the First Degree, Attempted Rape in the First Degree, and Assault in the Second Degree. He was pending sentencing on these charges at the time of his death.

23-4416 — Lane County Sheriff’s Deputies Arrest Arson Suspect (Photo) – 08/18/23
On 08/17/2023 just after 5:00pm a Lane County Sheriff’s Deputy noticed a column of smoke coming from the wooded area behind the Ray’s Food Place store on Territorial Hwy. in Veneta.
Additional deputies responded to the area and discovered that a fire had been started and was rapidly growing. Multiple firefighting resources responded, including a helicopter, to fight the fire. The fire was controlled and eventually extinguished.
Investigation revealed that 69-year-old Christopher James Barnstable intentionally set the fire. Barnstable was taken into custody on the charge of Arson in the First Degree.
The body found in Blue River Reservoir on Saturday has been identified as that of 40-year-old Mekenna Christine Reiley of Blue River. A post-mortem examination conducted by the Oregon State Medical Examiner has revealed that Reiley died as a result of drowning. There are no indications of foul play.
The Lane County Sheriff’s Office is continuing to investigate any leads related to her disappearance.
The Lane County Sheriff’s Office and Lane County Emergency Management have created two new Facebook pages to help residents more easily track information related to the Bedrock Fire and the Lookout Fire.
The Facebook pages will have up-to-date evacuation information, shelter information, animal evacuation and other resources. People are encouraged to follow these pages rather than the main agency accounts for the Sheriff’s Office or Lane County Government.
