After several days of uncertainty, we are relieved to share that the individual who had been evading law enforcement has been apprehended on Lucas Lodge property.
We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Sheriff John Ward, the Curry County Sheriff’s Office, neighboring county law enforcement agencies, the Oregon State Police Troopers, and the U.S. Marshals Service whose dedication, professionalism, and persistence led to a safe resolution.
We would also like to recognize Lucas Lodge owners Jim and Susan, along with Lodge Manager Jennifer and the entire Agness community, who rallied together to help get this situation resolved and aid in locating the suspect. The vigilance, communication, and support shown by our community throughout this ordeal was truly remarkable and serves as a reminder of what can be accomplished when people come together.
Most of all, we are grateful to finally breathe a little easier and relax knowing this situation has been resolved. Thank you to our guests, neighbors, friends, and community members for your patience, concern, and support over the past several days.
We appreciate everyone who worked tirelessly to bring this situation to a safe and successful conclusion. ❤️
