He was detained and deputies responded to contact Vancil. After additional investigation, Vancil was arrested and lodged at the Lane County Jail for: - Assault in the 2nd Degree - Unlawful Use of a Weapon - Kidnapping in the 2nd Degree - Coercion - Violation of a Restraining Order Vancil had also failed to comply with a sentence to appear on an Unlawful Possession of Methamphetamine conviction, so his sentence began on that charge when he was booked into the jail.
