9/15/25 - LCSO Case 25-4441 - Lane County Sheriff’s Crisis Negotiation Team Peacefully Resolves Armed Barricade Call (Photo) - 09/15/25
On September 15th at about 10 a.m., Lane County Sheriff’s deputies were at an address in the 800 block of S. 6th Street in Cottage Grove to serve a court-ordered eviction. As deputies were ensuring the residence was empty, a male made threatening remarks from inside. Deputies backed out of the residence and requested assistance.
The Lane County Sheriff’s Crisis Negotiation Team responded to contact the subject, who refused to exit. Due to his threatening statements and ownership of numerous firearms, the Lane County Sheriff’s Special Response Team responded with armored rescue vehicles to evacuate area residents and provide cover for deputies.
After several hours of negotiation, the subject surrendered. He was detained and taken to a hospital for a mental health evaluation.
Thanks to the Cottage Grove Police Department, Coburg Police Department, Oregon State Police, and FBI for their assistance in this case.
