Officials push fire danger level to ‘high’ THE UMPQUA POST The Siuslaw National Forest moved to a Fire Danger Level High on Friday, Aug. 1. Forest officials are asking that visitors please be fire safe when visiting the national forest.

“Due to continued hot and dry weather and the commitment of many fire personnel to other fires in the Pacific Northwest, we have moved our fire danger level to a high,” Dan Eddy, fire management officer for the Siuslaw National Forest, said in a news release.

The news release states that high fire danger level indicates that fuels are dry enough that fires can start easily from any cause. Unattended camp fires are more likely to escape and fires that do escape may become serious and difficult to control. More information is available on the Siuslaw National Forest webpage: http://www.fs.usda.gov/detailfull/si uslaw/home.

Currently, the forest has no fire restrictions for the public in place, but asks that visitors use caution while enjoying their natural spaces.

Please keep the following guidelines in mind: 1. Keep camp fires small, in an area that has been cleared down to

Police previously had contact with shooting suspect It’s every officer’s fear and every family’s worst nightmare.

Police called into a situation that escalates into a shooting.

It happened in Reedsport on July 17, when police were called out to a neighborhood dispute in a local mobile home park that turned into a suspect being shot. He later died.

Reedsport Police Chief Duane Wisehart was the second officer on the scene, but it wasn’t the first time he had seen 71-year-old Glenn Glancey.

“I had contact with Mr. Glancey on a previous occasion,” Wisehart said in an interview at Reedsport City Hall. “On that occasion, he was upset with his neighbors.

There had been other calls out there where he had been upset with his neighbors.

“He and his neighbors did not get along. It had been a longstanding feud, for various reasons, from what I understand.”

Wisehart said, as far as he could determine, Glancey was upset with the way his neighbors maintained their yards.

“He was very meticulous about his yard and things,” the chief said.

“His yard looked very nice. He took care of his yard. Some of the neighbors, in his opinion, did not.”

Wisehart said the conflicts sometimes turned into shouting matches and challengers to fight.

Police responded to a call of the assault of a neighbor July 17.

“He actually, apparantly, had been drinking, according to his wife and the neighbors,” Wisehart said. “He punched a neighbor in the face. That’s the original call.

That’s what we were responding to ... a neighbor disturbance with an assault involved.”

One officer, Reedsport Officer Trevor Gardner, responded to the call.

Gardner, Wisehart said, found

Reedsport Police Chief Duane Wisehart was not happy with an Umpqua Post headline in the July 30 edition of the paper, which outlined an officer-involved shooting that left a Reedsport man dead.

“Victim identified in officer-involved shooting,” the headline read.

“He was a suspect in an assault,” Wisehart said in an interview at Reedsport City Hall. “And then he comes out with a gun and fires at us. So, now he’s a suspect in, basically, an attempted murder. I object to a headline of ‘victim.’ The headline ‘victim’ is probably when you’re talking about a medical sense, he’s a victim, medically. I get that.”

Wisehart said he didn’t want Reedsport residents to get the wrong impression of the situation.

“From the public standpoint, they see that and, ‘oh, poor guy, he was a victim,’” the chief said.

The chief responded with a letter to the editor, which appears on Page A4. the situation had settled down.

“The parties were separated,” the chief said. “The assault was past tense. So, once we got there, one of the neighbors came out of Mr. Glancey’s home and told us he had made a statement to the effect that if the police came to bother him, or if police come over and contact him, he was going to shoot them and that he had a gun.

“When Officer Gardiner received that information and put

medical examiner. After careful and thoughtful deliberation, the grand jury concluded that the use of deadly physical force, by the officers involved in this case, was justified.”

Wesenberg also spoke of at least one past crime committed by Glancey.

“Glenn Glancey was known to his neighbors and to Reedsport police officers,” Wesenberg said.

“Glancey was frequently angry with his neighbors and angry over imagined slights, such as folks not mowing their lawns or getting lawn clipping onto his property.

Glancey’s anger was fueled by his very heavy drinking. Such was the case Thursday, July 17. What Glancey’s neighbors did not know, and could not know, was Glancey’s potential for explosive violence.

They did not know that Glancey had been convicted, in 1973 in North Carolina, of murder.”

Wesenberg said, on the day of the incident, Glancey physically attacked a neighbor, hitting him

Wife confirmed the suspect had been drinking before event that information out, then I responded to that to assist him with that.”

Just after the chief arrived, Sgt. Jeff Frieze of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office also arrived on the scene. He was joined by Deputy Dan Marchini.

“When I got on the scene we were trying to figure out what we were going to do,” Wisehart said. “At this point, he’s still in the house and we haven’t had any contact with him or his wife.

The only contact that we’d had was with the neighbor that he hit and the lady that came out and told us he was going to shoot us if we showed up.”

The chief said, in all honesty, they considered just leaving the scene.

“My thought was, ‘we’ll just leave,’” Wisehart said.

“If he’s in his house and the assault’s passed, nobody needs to go to the hospital, there’s no grievous injuries ... let’s just leave. We’re not going to push the issue. If he does have a gun and he’s drunk we’re not going to push the issue, is what my thought was at that time.”

The chief said they were making plans, including using the public address system on his car to ask Glancey to come out and talk.

“No answer. No answer,” he said. “Then the wife comes out. The wife tells me she doesn’t know why he’s acting this way. He took her gun. He took her ammo. She was worried that he was actually going to come out and kill somebody, or words to that effect.”

She confirmed her husband had been drinking.

At that time, Glancey stepped out onto the porch, yelling at officers.

“I couldn’t understand everything he was yelling at us,” Wisehart remembered.

“A lot of expletives. A lot of

profanity. I tried to engage him ... reminding him, ‘hey, we talked awhile back. I’d like to talk to you. Let’s figure this thing out. Let’s sort this out without it getting any crazier. I’ll meet you halfway out in the street.’”

Wisehart said Glancey wouldn’t come out and wanted the chief to come to him.

“Well, I’m not going to come over there because I can’t see you, but I’ll meet you in the middle of the street,” Wisehart repeated.

As he approached the middle of the street, Glancey reached behind his back.

Wisehart retreated and, as he did so, the suspect came up with a gun.

“The officers all yelled at him to ‘drop the gun, drop the gun,” Wisehart said. “I took Mrs. Glancey behind a sheriff’s vehicle to get her out of the line of fire and any danger.”

The suspect then fired at police. Wisehart remembered bullets fired back and forth for about a second.

It was apparent Glancey had been hit. Officers approached to make sure he wasn’t armed anymore and then called for paramedics.

Wisehart remembered that it all happened very quickly.

“We just didn’t have a lot of options,” he said. “We had a couple of neighbors behind us that were on their porches watching everything unfold. They kind of ducked, or ran for cover, when he came up with the gun.

“We tried to get some dialog with him before any of that happened. We tried to talk to him. He would not respond, coherently, to anything we said.”

The chief did not fire during the altercation.

“It’s very unfortunate,” he said. “No officer will ever tell you that you feel good about this. At that point, we were completely in a response mode. We didn’t dictate the outcome of that at all. We tried, as much as we could and as fast as we could, to make the outcome different.”

Grand Jury FROM PAGE 1 several times in the head.

The neighbor noticed Glancey had a large knife and retreated back to his home to call police.

Eventually, after police arrived, Glancey came out of the home with a .40 caliber semi-automatic pistol and an extra clip.

Wesenberg says he reacted to a Douglas County Sheriff’s Sergeant, whom he can see in the window of a police cruiser.

“And, as Sgt. (Jeff) Frieze moves for cover, Glenn Glancey opens fire on the officers,” Wesenberg said.

“Glenn Glancey was behind his car, firing over the roof and, because of the sun screen and the windshield, officers could see only Glancey’s head and the gun blazing away at them.

Glancey fired 10 rounds from his .40 caliber handgun.”

Other officers involved were Douglas County Sheriff Deputy Dan Marchini, Reedsport Police Officer Trevor Gardner and Reedsport Police Chief Duane Wisehart.”

Wisehart did not fire his weapon but, instead, protected the wife of the suspect behind a police vehicle.

No officers were hit.

Council FROM PAGE 1 show them some support and stability and be here for a long time.”

Wright said he’s glad for the extra time.

“We’ve started a lot of projects,” he said. “We’ve made a lot of momentum in a lot of areas. I would like to have enough time to see a lot of those projects through.”

Wright was hired in 2012 after a long career with the Douglas County Planning Department.

His extended contract will now allow Wright a take-home vehicle from the current city fleet. Wright said that vehicle will only be used for city business. He negotiated a reduction in a monthly stipend for his cell phone, to help offset fuel costs for the vehicle.

Wright’s salary remains the same: $75,000 a year.

In other business, the council approved the longterm placement of chainsaw carvings in the downtown area. Terms will be negotiated with the

Reedsport/Winchester Bay Chamber of Commerce/Chainsaw Committee and the Oregon Department of Transportation, which has some right-of-way along Highway 38 in the downtown area.

The council appointed Jesse Jackson, a local real estate agent, to the city’s planning commission to replace Jim Thomas, who left the city to take a job in Lane County.

The council adopted a resolution setting forth amendments to the city of Reedsport charter of 2008, allowing voters to decide of rates or tax as of Jan. 1, 2014.

The council hopes voters will rescind a double-majority requirement on some fee issues. An issue in May, regarding the use of reduced sewer rates to be used for storm water needs, namely the city’s levee, passed by a large margin, but the issue was not implemented because 50 percent of the city’s registered voters did not vote in the primary.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR P.E.O. thanks communities P.E.O. (Philanthropic Educational Organization) Chapter BZ of Reedsport would like to take this opportunity to thank the communities of Winchester Bay, Reedsport and Gardiner for their continued support, which provides scholarship opportunities to graduating senior girls and women pursuing college educations.

Through your generosity and purchase of carnations during our fall fundraiser and our annual Holiday Basket Raffle, Chapter BZ was able to award two local Memorial Scholarships this year of $1,500 each. We are very pleased to congratulate Shania Enfield and Bethany Hedges and wish them success in their educational goals.

The Scholarship Committee of Oregon State Chapter P.E.O. has selected Miss Amanda Stubblefield of Reedsport as recipient of the Oregon Scholarship award in the amount of $1,250 for continuing studies at Corban University during 2014-2015.

Through the years, the outpouring of support for local students to further their education has made our communities a special place to live. Thank you

are such small words, but they are filled with appreciation.

Scholarship Committee P.E.O. Chapter BZ Reedsport

Grateful for shoe donations I’d like to take a minute to say how grateful I am for the generous people in Reedsport.

Over the past few months I’ve watched people give 2,375 pairs of shoes to help build a medical clinic in Honduras and start micro-businesses in Chile.

I’ve seen people buy fireworks from our booth in Reedsport instead of at box stores in the valley or down the road so we could send children to camps, youth to conferences and adults to help on the mission field.

And now people are contributing cash, crayons, pencils, and all manner of school supplies and used clothing for the Family Festival coming up.

Thank you for the many ways you give and look out for each other. Some may say Reedsport’s greatest resources are the dunes and river. I say Reedsport’s greatest resources are its

people.

Terry Plotz Pastor, Reedsport Foursquare Church

Glancey was not a ‘victim’ This letter is in response to the headline story of your newspaper of July 30, 2014. I take serious personal and professional offense to the term “victim” being used in bold large print for this article. It seems you have applied this word/term to Mr. Glancey, the person that decided to try to shoot several officers in front of his house, including me. Mr. Glancey did receive a gunshot wound as a result of his attempted murder of several police officers outside of his home, an incident that he both initiated and also determined the outcome of, but he was in no way a victim. Mr. Glancey, had he survived, would have been charged with several serious crimes, including the attempted murder of police officers.

I am not the only one that took offense to this headline, and quite possibly not the only one to express my displeasure in writing, but it would be negligent of me not to write this letter.

the needs of local medical staff providers. This became Reedsport Medical Clinic, providing internal medicine and surgical specialties. The specialty clinic, providing office space for visiting specialists, moved into the building next to Reedsport Medical Clinic.

LUH became a critical access hospital July 24, 2002. This was a major move for the hospital because critical access hospitals are reimbursed at a higher rate in an effort to help keep hospital services available in smaller communities.

During the next 10 years the hospital transferred ownership of home health/hospice to Pacific Home Health and Hospice; the extended care unit was transferred to Aidan Senior Living at Reedsport;

Reedsport Medical Clinic became part of the district; nuclear medicine was added; the electronic health record, or EHR, was implemented; and Dunes Family Health Care, a family medicine primary care clinic, was integrated into the district.

This year, 2014, the hospital opened the walk-in clinic. The walk-in clinic, along with Reedsport Medical Clinic and Dunes Family Health Care, are part of the Lower Umpqua Hospital District and work hand-in-hand with each other. The hospital has an emergency room that is available 24 hours a day, but there are times when people are ill or slightly injured and don’t want to make a trip to an ER – the new walk-in clinic gives them another option.

Trout catches in larger lakes has been good; ocean crabbing productive No trout plants have been made in our local lakes in weeks, but some of the larger lakes, like Tenmile and Siltcoos have been producing fair trout fishing. The best fishing has been occurring in the midlake areas in the early morning on spinner and bait rigs or wedding rings tipped with a piece of nightcrawler. Eel Lake has also produced some decent trout catches in recent weeks.

Anglers should be aware that warm water temperatures may make it unlikely that released trout survive their release.

Lake Marie is scheduled to receive 800 trophy rainbows (16-inchers) the last week in August and an additional 500 legal rainbows the first week in September. If the

warm weather keeps water temperatures up, future trout plants may be at risk.

Crabbing continues to be very good and while the ocean is still most productive, the lower river boat crabbers and even the dock crabbers are also making good catches. Michael Hummer, of Portland, reported that he caught six legal crabs in a single pull of one trap while crabbing Saturday morning from the Coast Guard Pier.

Salmon fishing near Reedsport has been very inconsistent. Warm

Umpqua River water temperatures are holding Chinook salmon back from ascending the river above Reedsport. The number of Chinooks in the river is increasing, but the bite has been very erratic with early morning usually most productive.

The ocean coho season is scheduled to end August 10th, but most of the recent coho catch has been unclipped and illegal to keep.

The number of Chinooks caught last week has risen sharply with many taken near the Umpqua River Bar. Lots of Chinooks in the

Boosters present hoop to student THE UMPQUA POST Highland Elementary School student Hailie Keith was presented a new driveway basketball hoop system, courtesy of the Reedsport Braves Boosters.

The award is given annually in conjunction with the Highland staff, who selected Hailie as the recipient based on her outstanding performance and displays of citizenship at school.

The prize was announced at a year-end assembly at school and was delivered to Hailie’s home in Winchester Bay fully assembled.

“Hailie was ready to take some shots the moment we pulled up with it,” said Joe Zelinski, chairman of the Braves Boosters Association.

“There is tremendous interest in athletics among our younger students in the

30 to 35 pound class were taken last weekend.

Most salmon anglers are trolling plug cut herring, but some anglers, when fishing the ocean, are using hoochies with a herring strip - since it can be trolled faster and far more water can be covered.

While Umpqua River smallmouth fishing is often productive all day, the fishing for largemouth bass in local ponds and lakes is most productive in the early morning.

Fly anglers should try fishing for bluegills. The most productive lakes include Loon Lake, Cooper Creek Reservoir (in Sutherlin) and Triangle Lake (alongside Highway 36 - northeast of Mapleton)

Reedsport football camp is next week

Reedsport area, and this award is a great way to help promote that activity.”

The backboard and hoop system, as well as a new indoor/outdoor basketball, were purchased with proceeds from the annual Braves Boosters benefit dinner and auction. That event, held each April, raises funds to support athletic programs in the Reedsport school.

“Most of our financial attention is at the junior high and high school level, where school-sponsored athletic activities exist,” Zelinski said. “Awarding this prize at the elementary school is one way we can reach the younger students in our area and encourage good attendance, good Contributed Photo by Bob Huebner, Braves Boosters grades, a positive attitude and involvement in athletic Hailie Keith stands with her new basketball and hoop system, activity.” presented by the Braves Boosters Association.

THE UMPQUA POST Reedsport will host a high school football camp and a camp for students in fifth through eighth grades next week.

The camps are Aug. 11-14 at Ruppe Field. The cost is $20 and includes a camp Tshirt.

Students entering fifth through eighth grade will have camp from 4 to 5:30 p.m. each night. High school students will have camp from 6 to 8 p.m.

The non-contact camps will focus on football fundamentals, with an overview of the offenses and defenses used by all levels of Reedsport football programs.

The camps also will help the athletes get in shape for the upcoming season, which will help players avoid injury when practice starts in a few

weeks.

A new element of the camps this year will be a leadership program that will be incorporated throughout the camps.

Volleyball The Reedsport volleyball team will be in a team camp at North Bend High School next week.

The camp is Aug. 11-14 from 9 a.m. to noon and 13:30 p.m. each day (there is no afternoon session the final day).

The camp comes with a cost of $125 for the week.

For more information, contact coach James Hixenbaugh at 541-6620622 or 541-271-3414.

The first day for high school practice this fall for volleyball and football will be Aug. 18.

FROM THE UMPQUA POST AND THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CALGARY, Alberta — Brock Mackenzie, who has ties to the Reedsport area, won the ATB Financial Classic on Sunday at Sirocco Golf Club at 27-under 261, the second-best score in relation to par in PGA Tour Canada history.

Mackenzie, the 33-year-old former University of Washington player from Yakima, Washington, had rounds of 65, 63, 67 and 66 for a four-stroke victory over Joel Dahmen and Stephen Carney.

Brian Unk set the tour record of 28 under in the 2009 Seaforth Country Classic.

“I honestly didn’t expect to shoot 27 under at the beginning of the week,” Mackenzie said. “On this tour, 16 under’s usually a pretty good score. I don’t even know if that got in the top 15 this week. I just had to keep the pedal to the metal, as they say, and it went my way.”

Mackenzie earned $27,000 to jump to third on the money list with $44,822, with the final top five earning Web.com Tour status next season.

“To be able to play this way, I’m so

GREAT BUY!

happy with myself that I was able to execute and do what I did,” said Mackenzie, who also won the tour’s 2010 Bayview Place Island Savings Open. “Winning out here provides a huge step for next year. The perks of winning and what comes with that is even more special.”

Mackenzie’s father, Hugh, grew up in Reedsport and Hugh and Caren (Brock’s mom) Mackenzie lived in Coos Bay early in their married life.

Mackenzie’s sister, Paige, plays on the LPGA Tour and works for the Golf Channel.
