HR Police Take Man Into Custody, Seizing Drugs In Traffic Stop

Hood River Police took a man into custody after seizing a substantial amount of narcotics during a traffic stop.  According to a police statement, an adult male from the state of Washington was pulled over and the officer observed numerous signs of impairment.  A search of the vehicle yielded 18.5 grams of colored Fentanyl, 6.6 grams of Methamphetamine, 10 Vicodin pills, 20 Buprenorphine and Naloxone patches, and three glass pipes.  The man was taken into custody for suspicion of DUII-Controlled Substance.  Police say the Fentanyl pills were pink, adding they are starting to see more of them in a “skittle” colored form.

Truck & Trailer Pulled Out Of River

A full-sized truck hooked up to a boat trailer was pulled out of the Columbia River just east of Hood River on Wednesday.  According to the Skamania County Sheriff’s Office, its dive rescue and recovery team went to the scene at the In-Lieu fishing site at Interstate 84 milepost 66 at the request of Columbia River Inter-Tribal Enforcement.  Divers located the truck and trailer in about 17 feet of water, covered in milfoil.  Once they were removed by Guzman Brothers Tow Company of Hood River, it was verified no occupants were inside.  The Sheriff’s Office said the original report of the submerged truck indicated the occupants were able to make it to shore before the vehicle sank, but that information had not been verified.  Intertribal Fisheries Officers will be conducting a follow up investigation.

Man Dies Near Giles French Park

The Sherman County Sheriff’s Office says a 75-year-old man died this past weekend near Giles French Park in Rufus.  The Sheriff’s Office says late last Saturday night, deputies responded to a report of a missing man.  His boat was found adrift in the Columbia River with no one on board.  An initial investigation suggested the man jumped into the Columbia River to recover an item.  Deputies were able to recover the submerged body around midnight Saturday at the Giles French boat launch.  The Sheriff’s Office says the medical examiner is continuing to investigate.

Wasco County Commission Approves Water Project Contract

Wasco County Commissioners approved a contract with Crestline Construction to do the final phase of the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center Water System expansion project.  County Administrator Tyler Stone describes where this section of line will be installed which will start at the roadway into the Discovery Center, go down to The Dalles Country Club, turning at the apartment complex that is located there, and across the golf course property to their irrigation.  Crestline Construction was awarded the project with a bid of $274,720.  Commissioners noted that completion of this project has been long awaited.

Hood River Fly-In This Weekend

Missing Ridgefield Man Found Deceased In Rural Skamania County

A missing Ridgefield man was found deceased on Monday in rural Skamania County.  The Skamania County Sheriff’s Office says Krieg Kjer’s van was initially located on Saturday near Forest Service Road 25 by recreationists who recognized the vehicle as associated with a missing subject.  After the Sheriff’s Office conducted multiple search efforts, Kjer was not located.  But Kjer’s family assisted in search efforts on Monday and located Kjer outside of the original search area.  The cause of Kjer’s death has not been determined at this time, but the Sheriff’s Office says the manner does not appear to be suspicious.

Suspicious Death Discovered At Local Motel Being Investigated

Police in The Dalles are investigating what is being termed a suspicious death at a local motel on Sunday morning, and a person of interest is in custody in Central Oregon.  The Dalles Police say the deceased person is a 33-year-old woman from Portland.  Her body was found in a motel at 609 Cherry Heights Road.  Detectives determined a 32-year-old man, described as a resident of central Oregon, rented the room.  That individual was taken into custody by Deschutes County Sheriff’s Deputies on Sunday on charges unrelated to the death.  The Dalles Police, the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office, and the Wasco County District Attorney’s Office are continuing to investigate.
