IDLEYLD PARK, Ore. โ A California man was severely injured after falling approximately 40 feet while visiting Toketee Falls on Monday, resulting in a hours-long rescue involving multiple agencies.
On Monday, June 23, 2025, shortly after 1:00 p.m., a group of friends from Southern California were visiting Toketee Falls and crossed over the chain link safety fence and proceeded down approximately 200 feet to the beach area at the bottom. While taking turns jumping off a cliff into the water pool, 20-year-old Nicholas Foy of Newbury Park, California slipped and fell approximately 40 feet onto the rocks below, hitting his head.
The Sheriffโs Office along with Douglas County Search & Rescue, Glide Fire Department, Central Douglas Fire & Rescue, Umpqua Valley Ambulance and REACH Air Medical Services were dispatched to the scene and stabilized Foy.
Deputies, coordinating with the Oregon State Search and Rescue Coordinator, requested assistance from the United States Coast Guard to conduct a hoist. However, once the Coast Guard arrived on scene, it was determined they were unable to reach the patient.
Fire personnel were able to establish a rope system to extricate Foy to the trail and into a waiting ambulance around 7:18 pm. He was then transported by ground ambulance to the REACH Air Medical Services helicopter and was airlifted to PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center RiverBend in Springfield.Photos from Douglas County Sheriff's Office's post

๐ Governor Declares June Search and Rescue Awareness Month๐
Oregon Governor Tina Kotek proclaimed June 2025 to be Search and Rescue (SAR) Awareness Month on May 22, 2025. Within the proclamation, it is noted SAR teams across Oregon responded to nearly 1,100 missions last year. In those missions, SAR teams assisted individuals who were lost, injured or in distress and ensured their safe return to their families and communities.
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office Search and Rescue team is comprised of volunteers and two specialty deputies. They work together year-round to enhance their skills and prepare for many different circumstances.
In the attached photos, DCSO SAR members are seen last month in training with REACH Air Medical Services and U.S. Coast Guard Air Station North Bend. This training was to prepare K-9s and their handlers to travel via helicopter when necessary.
Lack of preparation is a leading factor in SAR incidents, according to the Governor's proclamation. DCSO SAR would like to remind Douglas County residents to be prepared when recreating this summer. Here are some ways to help:
โญ๏ธ Pack the 10 essentials (food, water, sun protection, etc.)
โญ๏ธ Stay on marked trails and respect safety signs
โญ๏ธ Share your plans with someone. Include your route and return time.
โญ๏ธ Check weather, trail conditions and campfire restrictions.
โญ๏ธ Boaters: Wear life jackets and plan for water conditions.Photos from Douglas County Sheriff's Office's post

After more than 15 years of dedicated service, we would like to announce the retirement of Deputy Darrell Norton, effective, Wednesday, June 4, 2025.
Darrellโs career with our agency began in July 2009 when he joined as a Reserve Deputy. Just two months later, he transitioned to a full-time deputy in September of that same year.
For the first few years of his career, Darrell worked primarily out of the north county office. In 2015, he was selected to serve as a Marine Deputy. For the past decade, Darrell has been a familiar presence on the waterways of Douglas County. Additionally, Darrell has made valuable contributions to the education of local children and the public through school events and community functions.
Additionally, Darrell served our country in the United States Navy.
Darrell's hard work, dedication, and commitment has left an impact on this community. We are grateful for his years of service. As he enters this next chapter of his life, we wish him nothing but the best in his well-deserved retirement.
Thank you, Darrell, for your service!Photos from Douglas County Sheriff's Office's post
