Oregon football player arrested in connection to fatal hit and run in Eugene

An Oregon football player has been arrested in connection with a Monday fatal hit and run in Eugene.

According the Eugene Police spokesperson Melinda McLaughlin, the incident happened around 9:10 p.m. on Monday at West 4th Avenue and Polk Street.

“This is a complex investigation and EPD is still gathering information to be submitted to the Lane County District Attorney’s Office for a final charging decision,” McLaughlin said in an email to The Register-Guard.

Police said the person killed was a 46-year-old man but have not yet released his name.

The Oregon player faces charges of failure to perform duties of a driver to injured persons. He is set to be arraigned at 1:30 p.m. at the Lane County Jail and remains in custody as of Wednesday morning.

It was not immediately clear when he was arrested. It is The Register-Guard’s policy not to identify individuals who are arrested until they have been arraigned in court.

“We are aware of the incident and are awaiting additional information,” an Oregon athletics spokesperson told The Register-Guard in an email.

This story will be updated.

Fire pit embers blamed for trailer fire on Table Rock Road; 1 displaced

Fire pit embers blamed for trailer fire on Table Rock Road; 1 displaced

MEDFORD, Ore. — Fire crews quickly knocked down a trailer fire Monday night that threatened a nearby home in the 3000 block of Table Rock Road, displacing one resident.

Firefighters responded around 9:20 p.m. Monday, May 4. Engine 14 arrived to find a trailer on fire and the flames threatening a nearby residence. Crews knocked the fire down within eight minutes of arrival.

No injuries to civilians or firefighters were reported. One resident was displaced as a result of the fire.

The cause is believed to be related to the use of an outdoor fire pit, where embers likely ignited nearby combustible materials. Officials said the fire spread from pallets and other items to the RV, causing extensive damage to the RV and minor damage to the exterior of the home.

With warmer, drier weather approaching, officials warned fire risk increases and urged people to follow outdoor fire safety tips. They recommend using a screen on outdoor fires when burning wood, choosing approved propane free-standing fire pits rather than wood-fueled options, keeping combustible materials at least 15 feet away, and discarding cigarettes, ash, embers and other smoldering materials in a non-combustible container filled with water.

Medford Police, Mercy Flights Inc. and Jackson County Fire District 3 assisted on the incident.
