OSP Trespassed Man from Interstate 5 Rest Area Due to Camping Violation

The Oregon State Police trespassed a man from an Interstate 5 rest stop in the North Valley area early yesterday.

According to OSP, troopers responded to a trespassing complaint at the south Manzanita Rest Area on Wednesday at 8:49 a.m..

Troopers said rest area workers requested the 60-year-old man be trespassed from the rest area due to a camping violation. He was excluded from the facility for three days per the employees' request.

The rest area camper advised OSP that he wanted to go to the hospital because he was unable to walk, so an ambulance transported him to Three Rivers Medical Center for an evaluation.

Troopers contacted the Oregon Department of Human Services' Elder Division Hotline regarding the homeless man's situation.
