Media Release February 21, 2026 Mail Theft Investigation Leads to Arrest On February 19, 2025, Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office Deputies received multiple reports of mail theft near NW Kinglet St in Seal Rock. Through the course of the investigation, Deputies learned similar thefts had been occurring in the area, with packages, tax documents, and other mail being stolen over the last few months. Deputies obtained photographs of the suspect from a nearby security camera and disseminated these images to neighboring law enforcement agencies to assist in identifying the individual. Through this process, the suspect was identified as Joshua Van Hoorebeke of Toledo. Van Hoorebeke was contacted and taken into custody for Mail Theft (ORS 164.162). Mail theft is a crime of opportunity and those who commit it are looking for anything of value. Thieves target mail for personal information, such as tax refunds or other checks, personal documents, bank documents, and credit card information. This information can be used to commit additional crimes, such as identity theft and bank fraud. To protect yourself, pick up mail daily, use secure drop-off locations, and report suspicious activity immediately to the U.S. Postal Inspection Service at 877-876-2455 or at MailTheft.USPIS.gov. To report mail theft or other suspicious activity, please contact Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office at 541-265-0777. Featured News by Lincoln County Sheriff

On Tuesday, February 10th, at approximately 8:45 p.m., HPD officers responded to a single-vehicle crash at the intersection of NE Ronler Drive and NE Century Boulevard. Officers arrived to find four occupants inside the vehicle. The driver, Oscar Regis, age 19, fled the scene on foot but was quickly located and detained by officers. Four passengers were transported to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center for treatment. Tragically, one passenger sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the hospital. Another passenger sustained major injuries. The preliminary investigation by the Crash Analysis Reconstruction Team (CART) indicates Regis was traveling at a high rate of speed when the vehicle struck a light pole, spun across the sidewalk curb, and came to a stop in a patch of grass. Oscar Regis was indicted on the following charges: Manslaughter in the First Degree, Assault in the Second Degree, Assault in the Third Degree, two counts of Failure to Perform Duties of a Driver to Injured Persons, Unlawful Possession of a Firearm, Unlawful use of a Weapon, Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants, Reckless Driving, three counts of Recklessly Endangering Another Person, and Criminal Mischief in the Second Degree. CART (Crash Analysis Reconstruction Team) is a multi-agency team comprised of specially trained law enforcement officers from the Washington County Sheriff's Office, the Beaverton Police Department, Hillsboro Police Department, Tigard Police Department, and Tualatin Police Department. The Washington County District Attorney's Office also assigns Deputy District Attorneys to the team. This remains an active investigation. Anyone with additional information is asked to contact Non-Emergency Dispatch at (503) 629-0111. Featured News by Hillsboro Police Department
