BURGLARY TO LOCAL BUSINESS RESULTS IN SAME DAY ARREST A Coos Bay man has been taken into custody on multiple charges and unrelated warrants following a burglary at a local business. On December 11, 2025, at approximately 6:30 a.m., the Coos Bay Police Department (CBPD) received a report of a burglary at the Coos Bay Rail Link, 115 E. Hall Avenue, Coos Bay. The caller reported that tools, an iPad, and other items had been stolen, along with a vehicle and numerous keys to other vehicles on the property. Officers began investigating and searching the area, while North Coos 9-1-1 (NC911) dispatchers shared information about the stolen vehicle, a blue 2019 Ford Ranger pickup, with neighboring law enforcement agencies. At approximately 1:15 p.m., an officer with the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indian Tribal Police (CTCLUSI) spotted the stolen vehicle and identified the driver as 26-year-old Christopher Coker of Coos Bay. After briefly following the vehicle while waiting for backup, it unexpectedly stopped and parked near the intersection of Caitlin Lane and Laura Lane in North Bend. The officer held the vehicle, Mr. Coker, and his passenger at that location until additional officers arrived. Mr. Coker admitted to being involved in the burglary, and all stolen property from the Coos Bay Rail Link was recovered. CBPD officers transported Mr. Coker to the Coos County Jail on the below listed charges related to this case and unrelated warrant charges: • Unauthorized use of a motor vehicle • Burglary in the 2nd degree • Aggravated theft in the 1st degree • CBPD warrant charging failure to appear on original charges of unlawful possession of methamphetamine and unlawful possession of fentanyl • CBPD warrant charging failure to appear on original charges of unlawful entry into a motor vehicle and theft in the 3rd degree • CBPD warrant charging failure to appear on original charges of criminal trespass in the 1st degree and theft in the 3rd degree • CBPD warrant charging failure to appear on original charges of criminal trespass in the 1st degree and theft in the 2nd degree • CBPD warrant charging failure to appear on original charges of failure to appear in the 2nd degree The CBPD thanks the CTCLUSI Tribal Police for their help in quickly resolving this case, as well as the North Bend Police Department (NBPD) for their support on scene.
