Sheriff's Office, National Guard Respond To Non-Injury Plane Crash Southeast Of Molalla
Case # 24-025511
At 2:27 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2024, Clackamas County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a reported plane crash southeast of Molalla within Clackamas County.
The plane was a rented single-engine Cessna with two occupants, a licensed pilot and passenger. The pilot told deputies they were attempting to fly from Washington County to Bend when the Cessna experienced engine trouble resulting in full engine failure.
The pilot spotted a gravel road near Trout Creek and the North Fork of the Molalla River, and was able to set the plane down within minutes of the mechanical issue.
While the plane suffered some damage, the pilot and passenger were reportedly uninjured.
They were also able to get a quick airlift from the crash scene.
As detailed in @oregonnationalguard's Instagram post on the incident, an Oregon Army National Guard HH-60M Black Hawk helicopter happened to be on a scheduled training mission over Clackamas County at the time of the crash. After hearing the distress call on the radio, they quickly located the aircraft, landed at the crash scene, and transported the pilot and passenger to Mulino Airport.
Deputies responded to the airport and interviewed the pilot and passenger, while additional deputies responded to the crash scene to secure and document the scene.
The rental company is arranging retrieval of the Cessna.
The case was referred to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for investigation.

Traffic Investigators Renew Call for Help in Identifying Hit-and-Run Driver
Gresham Police Dept
Gresham, Ore.—Traffic investigators are releasing additional video showing the driver and passengers involved in a hit-and-run crash in late 2023. A motorcyclist was critically injured by a hit-and-run driver on New Years Eve in Gresham. On Dec. 31, 2023, at approximately 10:30 p.m., Gresham police officers and medical personnel responded to a report of a traffic collision involving a red Chevy Sonic (similar to a Chevy Aveo) and a motorcycle on SE Division St. and SE 202 Ave. The driver of the Sonic rear-ended the rider, knocking him off his motorcycle, then ran over the rider before fleeing the scene. The motorcycle rider was transported to the hospital where he remained for more than a month.
The East Metro Vehicular Crimes Team (VCT) is investigating the case and initially released a video showing the suspect and a passenger abandoning the vehicle on a nearby side street. Traffic investigators are releasing additional video from a doorbell camera showing the suspect and passengers as they fled the scene. A passenger can be heard calling to another passenger “Gio,” or “Tio,” or something similar, as they encouraged another passenger to hurry up.
Investigators found a receipt from an area liquor store in the suspect vehicle. They are releasing a photo of a person of interest obtained from the liquor store video surveillance system.
The victim of the hit-and-run is still working to regain the use of his legs as the one-year anniversary of the crime approaches. “As someone who has seen video of the crash, I can say the victim is lucky to be alive,” Officer Adam Oblack stated. Oblack is the lead investigator on the case. “We’re hoping the release of additional video and photos will renew interest in the case and encourage someone to come forward to identify the suspect,” he added.
If anyone recognizes the suspect, passengers, or the person of i
Oregon State Police announces winning entry in the "Name Our K-9" Contest
Oregon State Police
Oregon State Sr. Trooper Scott Show needed an official name for his new drug-detection K-9. He had the idea to let Oregon elementary school students name the two-year-old female Belgian Malinois. On Oct. 17, 2024, OSP launched the “Name Our K-9” contest. At the time, no one knew we would end up with a very special name for one family.
After almost 800 entries and a week of online voting, the winning entry of “Millie” was selected. Receiving almost half the votes cast, the winning entry was submitted by five-year-old Violet of Winston in honor of her twin sister Millie, who unexpectedly passed away earlier this year.
Kylee Stewart, Violet and Millie’s mother, said, “Millie and Violet were inseparable. Although they were complete opposites, they shared a love of animals. When we came across the “Name Our K-9” contest, Violet knew she wanted to enter her sister’s name.”
“Nobody planned for there to be this much meaning behind naming the K-9,” said Sr. Trooper Show. “To have our dog end up with a name that’s got some significance and is meaningful to this family is really wonderful.”
K-9 Millie is certified through the Oregon Police Canine Association as a drug-detection dog. She and Sr. Trooper Show are assigned to the Albany Patrol Office for drug interdiction along Interstate 5 and throughout the state. As an ongoing tribute, OSP will recognize K-9 Millie’s drug seizures, when possible, with a special nod to the little girl who inspired her name.
“On behalf of myself and the entire Oregon State Police family, it is an honor to be part of this special memorial to Millie Melton,” said Superintendent Casey Codding. In recognition for winning the naming contest, Violet received a letter and certificate from Superintendent Codding and an OSP uniform patch. She also received a Belgian Malinois plushie personalized with the OSP lo

DUII SUSPECT APPREHENDED AFTER BACKING INTO POLICE CRUISER, FLEEING TRAFFIC STOP
Portland Police Bureau
A #DUII suspect was apprehended after backing into a police cruiser and fleeing from a traffic stop.
On Monday, November 25, 2024, at approximately 5 p.m., a member of the Portland Police Bureau’s Major Crash Team was driving an unmarked police vehicle northbound on I-205 near Southeast Sunnyside Road when another vehicle captured his attention. The officer reported witnessing the vehicle weaving within its lane and almost hitting a vehicle in another lane. By this point, the officer had reasonable suspicion for DUII and probable cause for failure to drive within a lane and he conducted a traffic stop. As the officer was getting ready to get out of his vehicle in order to address the driver, the vehicle quickly accelerated backwards and into the front of the PPB patrol car. According to the officer who was not injured, the driver exited his vehicle and looked at the patrol car with its lights activated. The officer drew his firearm to gain compliance, but the driver jumped back into his vehicle and drove away. A deputy with the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office was in the area and conducted a second traffic stop on the vehicle. This resulted in the driver being taken into custody without incident.
A trooper with Oregon State Police conducted a field sobriety test on the driver, identified as Isaiah M. Woster, 26, of West Linn, and ultimately transported him to the Clackamas County Jail where he was lodged on the following charges: DUII and Reckless Driving. Additional charges are possible.
“I am beyond relieved that nobody in the community was hurt and our officer is okay,” Chief Bob Day said. “This incident highlights the dangers our members face each and every day. I am grateful the individual was taken into custody without doing further harm.”
PPB would like to thank the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office and Oregon State Police for assistanc
