A friend said he saw a crew cab truck being pulled out of the Coos River earlier. I haven't seen anything in the news or in this paper regarding this.

This area is filled with bad drivers. Every day I am on the road dealing with it. People running red lights, stop signs, not yielding, not allowing others to merge, speeding, drving in the left lane always, making right turns after passing other cars with turn signals on, head lights out, missing tail lights, back up lights out and so forth. Every day without exception I see a near miss. We are going to see this get worse. Mark my words.

I happen to know this family and yes he can come up with the money! His bail has been raised, but he should NOT be allowed out either way!!! If you repeatedly make poor choices you should be punished that goes for both above mentioned crimes!!!

To FEDUP, No. If the person who was arrested for DUII was not already on probation for committing a different crime in the past, they would probably have been cited and released without bail. But because they were still on probation when they screwed up again, they don't get bail. And really, is that other guy going to be able come with over 5 grand (10%) to bail himself out?

So if you drink and drive they throw away the key, but if you are a FELON in possesion of a firearm holding it to someone threatining them then resist arrest ending in a stand off you get the opportunity to bail yourself out? SICK SICK SICK!!

If someone is arrested and charged with a probation violation, they are held without bail. One of the things the first guy was charged with was a probation violation. I am guessing that is what's holding him.

In reading these articles I was a bit confused, #1 you have this person that was in the accident, he was charged with driving under the influence and other things. He was taken to Coos County Jail where he remains with NO BAIL set. #2 You have this horrible man in Reedsport that held his wife at gunpoint and all the violence from his past and he has a bail that he can post and be a free man to walk among us all! What is going on here?
