Travis Says,
SURFSIDE DEPUTY REPORT
DEPUTY T. OSTGAARD
AUGUST 18th – AUGUST 24th, 2016
On 08/19 I was contacted about a transient in the 1300 block of 308th. The reporting party stated that she had
seen the subject on a property with a hammock up for a few days. The reporting party stated she told the subject she
was calling the Sheriff’s office and he left. I asked the reporting party to call back if she sees the subject again because
I would like to speak with him. This is the second report of the subject in the area over the last month or so.
On 08/19 I received a call about a theft of an ornamental bottle in the 33600 block of I St. The victim stated
that the bottle was taken from the top of her tree in her front yard. I believe the suspect/s in this case were the same
ones that have been taking solar lights, knocking on doors late at night and egging houses. I think it is 2-3 juvenile
males. I have worked some later shifts and the nights I have worked, nothing has happened.
On 08/19 I was dispatched to the 1300 block of 322nd Pl. for an animal complaint. A nurse at Columbia Memorial Hospital stated that patient was in the hospital with a dog bite and it happened in Surfside. I contacted the ER
nurse and she stated that a 2 year old child had been bitten on 08/18 and the mother had brought him in to be
checked out. I took all the information and turned it over to the health department. Since it was a family dog I did
not have to serve the dog owner’s papers.
On 08/19 I was dispatched to the 1500 block of 323rd Pl. for a welfare check. The person I was trying to check
on was not there.
On 08/20 I was dispatched to the 30000 block of W St. for a domestic violence call. Dispatch advised me that
a female had called 911 screaming for help. I responded with another deputy and we contacted the male half as he was
leaving the area. He stated that he was in the process of splitting up with his girlfriend and she would not give him
the money from his paycheck. I contacted the female half and she stated that the male half owed her past due rent
money, so she was keeping the money from his paycheck. There was no physical assault and I advised both parties
that dispute over money would be a civil issue.
On 08/22 I was dispatched to the 30100 block of W St. for an agency assist call. The reporting party works for
Pacific County Public Works and he stated they were trying to get vehicles moved from the right of way so they could
level the gravel. When I arrived the homeowner was moving vehicles and stated he didn’t get any notice, but he
would have them moved ASAP.
Traffic warnings: 5- Traffic citations: 3- Welfare check: 1- Suspicious circumstances: 1- Theft: 1- Animal complaint: 1- Domestic violence: 1- Agency assist: 1

This meeting will be open to all Surfside members and the Trustees will answer
questions and consider any input from members.
This is not a Board Meeting.
