Deputies Jailed One Person & Looking for Another after Hog Creek Area Call

The Josephine County Sheriff's Office jailed one person and were looking for another in connection with a vandalism incident near Hog Creek Boat Landing.

The Sheriff's Office reports deputies arrested 19-year-old Victoria Reanna Corona for the incident in the 4700-block of Galice Road on Tuesday at 4:17 p.m..

Deputies said they received a call from a resident reporting two people torched her travel trailer, injured her dog and stabbed a tire on her vehicle. She identified the suspects as Corona and her boyfriend, William Foxx. Foxx was reportedly armed with a large knife when he eluded law enforcement by running into the woods.

Corona was located inside a vehicle driven by a woman named "Brown" and she was placed into custody. She was transported to Grants Pass and lodged without bail at the Josephine County Jail for 1st-Degree Burglary and 3rd-Degree Theft.

A search for Foxx in the Hog Creek area was unsuccessful. Charges of 1st-Degree Arson, Unlawful Use of a Weapon, Burglary, Menacing and Escape against him were referred to the District Attorney's Office for eventual prosecution.

Brown was cited for Failure to Register a Vehicle.
