While training at Estacada Lake yesterday, one of our divers found a baggie 55 feet underwater. It contained a phone, credit card, driver’s license and $20.
The deputy contacted the owner. She'd lost the items in July. The deputy dropped the items off at her house.
With this radio sign-off at 5:47 p.m., Sheriff Roberts officially retired — capping a career that included four terms leading the Sheriff's Office, where he started as a reserve deputy in 1979.

It started with that 2.5-hour suspect track we talked about on Feb. 6 ...

Nice work, Grimm!

Yep, that’s a peacock. Just another example of “You never know what you’re going to see on patrol.” A deputy stopped to help this motorist out. She told him the peacock was stuck in the grill guard. Glad to say the #peacock walked away from this encounter and appeared uninjured.
