•••Woman crashes stolen vehicle and flees on foot.  Subsequent search warrant recovers stolen property from local burglaries.••• On April 20, 2023, at 11:30 a.m., the Coos County Sheriff’s Office Dispatch Center received a 911 report of a single-vehicle crash on East Bay Road near milepost two, just northeast of North Bend. Before deputies arrived on the scene, a witness reported that a woman who had been driving the vehicle fled on foot. Deputies Mong, Francis, and M.R. Smith arrived and determined that the vehicle was reported as stolen. Deputy Mong remained with the stolen car while Deputies Smith and Francis established a perimeter for a K9 track. Prior to K9 Cena arriving on the scene, the woman was found at her residence on Nipperville Drive, a short distance from the crash. The woman, who was identified as Lanie N. Denton (26) of North Bend, was arrested at the residence for unlawful use of a motor vehicle. Lanie was transported to the Coos County Jail, where she was released on her recognizance. Further investigation into the incident caused Sgt. Slater to apply for a search warrant to search Lanie’s residence on Nipperville Drive. Members of S.C.I.N.T. assisted with the search, which yielded a small amount of methamphetamine, and the recovery of hundreds of dollars of stolen property from two separate burglaries previously reported to the Coos County Sheriff’s Office. These stolen items, including family heirlooms, were recovered and returned to their rightful owners. After the complete investigation, Lanie N. Denton (26) is being referred to the Coos County District Attorney’s Office additionally on the charges of burglary I, theft I, and theft by receiving.
