According to Coos County Sheriff's Office, a deputy responded to two 911 calls Tuesday reporting an assault which had occurred in Powers. One of the callers, later identified as 35-year-old Robert Lloyd Finder of North Bend, requested medical attention for a concussion received as a result. An ambulance transported him to Coquille Valley Hospital where the deputy responded to to meet and interview him. The first 911 caller reported the man being transported by ambulance, Finder, had unlawfully entered another person’s home in Powers. Finder became belligerent when the deputy tried to interview him in the hospital, according to the report. He told the deputy he "had gone to Powers because he had given an X-Box to a child and their mother was refusing to let the child to play with it," the report said. Finder felt since he had given it to the child, the child’s mother could not keep it from the child, police said. "Finder said he was assaulted by the persons inside of the house when he tried to forcibly take the property back," the sheriff's office said. "Robert Finder became upset when he found out he could be charged with several crimes and became argumentative." When he found out he was going to be taken into custody, he attempted to flee the hospital before being seen by medical personnel, police said. The deputy chased after him and, with the assistance of a Coquille Police officer, took him into custody. Finder physically resisted arrest and remained uncooperative during the remainder of the process, the report said. Police say the investigation indicated Finder assaulted two female adult relatives and two male juvenile relatives attempting to overcome his attempt to take their property. Additionally, he used physical force and an improvised weapon when he tried to assault a neighbor who intervened to break up the fight. After driving away from the scene "in a manner which endangered persons and property," police said, he was found to be in possession of license plates displayed on his truck which were stolen from a church in Hauser. Finder was arrested and lodged on a total of 13 criminal charges, listed as follows: 1 x ORS 164.225 Burglary in the First Degree 1 x ORS 163.208 Assault on Public Safety Officer (Attempted) 1 x ORS 166.070 Aggravated Harassment 1 x ORS 164.395 Robbery in the Third Degree 3 x ORS 163.160 Assault IV (Felony) 2 x ORS 166.065 Harassment 1 x ORS 166.220 Unlawful Use of a Weapon 1 x ORS 811.140 Reckless Driving 1 x ORS 164.055 Theft I (By Receiving/ Possession of Stolen Property) 1 x ORS 162.315 Resisting Arrest

Police Chief Steve Scibelli said it was pretty embarrassing to have a thief hit his downtown station, stealing a radio, two stun guns and a Crown Victoria patrol car. The one saving grace is that police made a quick arrest. Robert Lloyd Finder, 26, remains in the Coos County Jail, facing just about every charge the police could think up: burglary, possession of burglary tools, theft, unlawful use of a motor vehicle, unlawful entry into a motor vehicle, criminal mischief, criminal trespass, tampering with physical evidence and reckless driving.
