​   
​On Monday, September 28, 2026, North Coos 911 received a report from a person who said a man had thrown a beer bottle at the caller’s vehicle while it was parked on Lakeshore Drive near Stillwater Avenue. The caller followed the other vehicle to obtain its license plate number and other identifying information. After the vehicle pulled off the road at another turnout, the caller continued to a gravel parking lot and called 9-1-1. While speaking with dispatchers, the caller reported seeing the vehicle approach from behind and hearing gunshots that the caller believed were directed at them. The caller then fled the area.   
​   
​Patrol Officers and a Detective responded to the area. An Oregon State Police Trooper, who was in the area, located the suspect vehicle traveling westbound on Newmark Avenue. The Trooper and Coos Bay Police stopped the vehicle after it pulled into the Empire Boat Ramp.
