Assault, Feb. 26

Persimmon Ln., CCSO report – On February 22, 2019, at about 11:30 PM, the Coos County Sheriff’s Office responded to Bay Area Hospital in response to a report of an assault which had occurred at 92805 Persimmon Lane, Coos Bay. The Coos County Sheriff’s Office had responded to the property multiple times throughout the evening following 911 calls reporting Ellen Charloe and Mary Sonbergh “bothering” one another. The calls were not reporting anything emergent in nature and resulted in the parties being told to separate. After a Deputy left the second time, Mary Sonbergh was allegedly assaulted by Ellen Charloe, her sister. The Deputy investigated the incident and found probable cause existed to arrest Charloe for Assault IV Domestic. Charloe was arrested without incident and transported to the Coos County Jail. However, Sonbergh will be referred to the Coos County District Attorney’s Office alleging Misuse of 911. Sonbergh made multiple 911 calls admitting she knew her problem was not an emergency and continued to use 911 after being provided with the non-emergent number for non-emergent complaints.
