Authorities Jailed Woman for Felony Assault and Weapon Crimes in Wolf Creek
The Josephine County Sheriff's Office has jailed a woman for felony assault and weapon crimes that may have occurred in the Wolf Creek area last weekend.
The Sheriff's Office reports deputies arrested 40-year-old Faye Lauren Fox at a home in the 400-block of Old Stage Road on Thursday shortly after 9 a.m..
The address was the same as where deputies and state troopers responded to last Saturday night for an attack in which the victim was struck in the back of the head with a machete. The victim was not identified, but OSP mentioned a 31-year-old St. Helens man and two men -- ages 55 and 40 -- from Wolf Creek in its report.
Fox was transported to Grants Pass and lodged at the Josephine County Jail for Felony 2nd-Degree Assault and Felony Unlawful Use of a Weapon. She was being held without bail. The machete allegedly used in the attack was recovered by OSP.
According to the report, deputies were also looking for a male suspect -- but they were unable to locate him as the investigation is continuing.
Three adult dogs and five puppies were transported from the rural property to the Josephine County Animal Shelter near Merlin.
