05.28.26 - Female Arrested Following Theft in Yachats
On May 28, 2026, Lincoln County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a theft in the 500 block of Highway 101 in Yachats. Deputies learned a female suspect had entered a local business and stolen items. After reviewing video evidence of the theft, a deputy identified Danielle Condley as the suspect and located her behind the Yachats City Hall.
When the deputy contacted Condley and informed her she was being detained for the theft, Condley began to walk away, staggering her stance and obstructing her right hand from view. Condley shouted not to come near her as she attempted to leave the scene. The deputy reiterated his instructions and moved into a position to prevent Condley from escaping. Condley backed away from the deputy and removed a knife from her pocket. As she pulled the knife, Condley lost control of the weapon, dropping it to the ground. Both Condley and the deputy proceeded to reach for the knife, with Condley gaining possession. The deputy quickly tackled Condley to ground to prevent her from using the weapon and gave her commands to drop the knife. Condley was disarmed and placed in handcuffs.
The deputy on scene requested cover units respond as Condley was actively attempting to escape the deputy’s physical restraint. Additional deputies, alongside the Oregon State Police, arrived and assisted in taking Condley into custody without further incident. No injuries were reported and the stolen property was recovered.
Condley was charged with Theft in the Third degree, Unlawful Use of a Weapon, and Resisting Arrest.
