TRI CITY, Ore. - Deputies responded to South Umpqua High School on Thursday, April 19, 2018, for a report of vandalism in a girl's bathroom. The vandalism was non-specific graffiti on a bathroom wall that made reference to a threat against the school on Friday, April 20, 2018.
Deputies are conducting a criminal investigation in cooperation with the school district. Several interviews were conducted and at this time the Sheriff's Office does not feel there is a credible threat. However, an increased law enforcement presence will be observed on the school campus on Friday.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Sheriff's Office at 541-440-4471 or by email at dcso.pio@co.douglas.or.us.
