Deputy Smith activated his patrol vehicle’s lights and pulled the driver of the vehicle over after turning onto Cascade Lane and Everest Road.

During the traffic stop, Coos County Dispatch advised Deputy Smith that Williams had (2) outstanding warrants for her arrest. Dispatch confirmed one local Coos County warrant and one warrant from Linn County. Both the driver and Williams were cited for failure to wear a seatbelt, and Williams was transported to the Coos County Jail where she was booked and lodged. The Coos County Sheriff’s Office would like to remind the public to always wear their seatbelt and always come to a complete stop at a stop sign. These seemingly small laws are in place for your safety and the safety of those sharing the road with you.
