Deputies Arrested Pair for Warrant & Weapon Crimes after Williams Area Spat
The Josephine County Sheriff's Office arrested two people for warrant and weapon violations following a disturbance in the Williams area early yesterday.
According to the Sheriff's Office, deputies responded to the incident at a home in the 1400-block of Rock Creek Road on Wednesday around 6:30 a.m..
Deputies said the 9-1-1 Dispatch Center received a call from that address, but the call taker only heard shuffling on the line followed by the voice of a young woman asking someone to leave her alone. Dispatchers eventually learned that a verbal confrontation was taking place and they alerted deputies before it escalated.
Upon arrival, deputies discovered that the two parties were arguing about the man allowing smoke into the home. The woman stated that she was helping clean up the property for the owner and denied that she was in a relationship with the man, who was identified as 37-year-old Bobby Gillette.
Gillette was found to be wanted on a Grants Pass felony warrant containing a secret indictment for three counts of 1st-Degree Forgery. He was arrested and lodged at the Josephine County Jail.
The young woman -- who was not identified -- was arrested for being a Felon in Possession of a Firearm. She was cited to appear in court and then given a courtesy ride into Grants Pass. The firearm was seized.
