Lane County Sheriff’s K9s locate DUI driver after crash with injury
On February 19th just before midnight, Lane County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the area of S. Willamette Street and Fox Hollow Road for a possible crash. They located a heavily damaged sedan that had destroyed a guardrail, but was unoccupied. A witness reported they saw two people walking north of the crash.
A sergeant responded with K9 Tito, who immediately began tracking north toward Spencer Butte. Deputies spotted two people north of K9 Tito on S. Willamette Street. When contacted, a male, later identified as Kyle Malone Edwin Mcilvain, 28, of Eugene, jumped over a resident’s fence and ran. The other person cooperated with deputies and was determined to be the passenger. They had minor injuries consistent with being in a crash and were treated on scene by Eugene Springfield Fire.
By this time, a deputy was in the area with K9 Ripp. Deputies, Eugene Police officers and Oregon State Troopers set a perimeter in the area while they got to work. K9 Ripp tracked over several fences before finally showing interest in a resident’s back yard. Deputies found Mcilvain hiding in the yard and detained him.
After additional investigation, Mcilvain was arrested and lodged at the Lane County Jail on the following charges:
- DUII
- Assault in the 3rd Degree
- Reckless Driving
- Reckless Endangering
- Criminal Mischief in the 2nd Degree
- Fail to Perform Duties of a Driver - Property Damage
- Two counts of Trespass in the 2nd Degree
Thanks to the Eugene Police Department, Oregon State Police, Eugene Springfield Fire, and area residents for their assistance during this incident.
