Illegal Hunting Charges A North Bend-area man was arrested Wednesday evening by an Oregon State Police (OSP) Fish & Wildlife trooper on an allegation he shot and killed a black bear on July 9 and left it to waste. The investigation is continuing and additional charges may be pending. On July 18, 2012, OSP Senior Trooper Levi Harris received a tip regarding the illegal killing of a black bear by an identified suspect on rural property outside of the North Bend city limits. Subsequent investigation led Harris to the property where evidence was found substantiating the tip. At approximately 6:25 p.m., Harris contacted the property owner, JOHN ALLEN GIBSON, age 42, at his place of employment in Coos Bay and took him into custody for Taking Black Bear Closed Season. GIBSON was lodged in the Coos County Jail. Information developed during the investigation indicates the bear weighed approximately 200 pounds and its remains were dumped on state forest property a few miles from the suspect's residence. It's unknown at this time if the bear was male or female.

Sheriff's Dept., over $10,000 in property was stolen during the burglary at a residence on Hamer Road in the Siletz area June 25. Information gathered led investigators to the home of 22-year old Kayla Dawn Whyte, Toledo, July 1, where

some of the stolen property was recovered. Whyte was charged with Theft by Receiving. In July 2, 26-year old Justin Lee Webber, Toledo, was located at the Eureka Cemetery in Newport. He was charged with Burglary I, Aggravated Theft I and Theft I. Both were lodged in the county jail at Newport.

The Oregon Air National Guard's 142nd Fighter Wing is hosting F16s from Luke Air Force Base's 21st Fighter Squadron to conduct dissimilar air combat training through October 14th. Flights will launch daily after 7:00 a.m. and will conclude before 4:00 p.m. Dissimilar air combat training provides realistic combat training scenarios and opportunities to hone different aerial tactics that may be used against potential adversaries. "The synergy created by training alongside dissimilar aircraft provides much more complex scenarios than we can receive flying alongside other F-15s," said 142nd Fighter Wing Operations Group Commander, Col. Jeff Hwang. The Oregon Air National Guard trains with international partners to better understand our combined abilities, he said. "Flight training with other nations directly enhances bilateral relations and allows us to strengthen international relationships," said Col. Michael Stencel, 142nd Fighter Wing Commander. The 142nd Fighter Wing is tasked under the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) to defend the skies over the Pacific Northwest.
