🌟 Coos County Sheriff's Office Update 🌟 July 13, 2025 - 5:49 PM Hey Coos County community! 🙌 Big shoutout to our amazing deputies and an anonymous tipster who helped us today! 🚓 Around 5:49 PM, North Coos Dispatch got a tip that wanted man Jimmie Rozier (44) was at a home on Grinnell Lane in Coos Bay.
