Josephine County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to an address on the 5200 block of Dick George Road in Cave Junction, regarding reports of shots being fired at the location at approximately 3:15pm Wednesday afternoon, April 30th.
During the investigation it was reported that the subject, identified as 31 year old Blaine Case, arrived at the property and began firing multiple rounds from a handgun toward two individuals who were not struck by the gunfire, however, four bullet holes were observed in the building near where they were standing.
Case fled the scene after firing the rounds according to victim reports, prompting deputies to begin searching the surrounding area. During the search for Case, a second call came in from a neighboring resident reporting his ATV had just been stolen by an unknown male subject.
Information that Case was possibly residing on Holland Loop Road, Cave Junction, lead Deputies, with the assistance of Oregon State Police, to that location. When Deputies arrived, they observed the stolen ATV on the property.
After a short standoff, Case exited the residence and was taken into custody without further incident and the stolen ATV was returned to the owner.
Blaine Case was lodged at the Josephine County Jail on multiple charges including Attempted Assault in the First Degree (x2), Unlawful Use of a Weapon (firearm), Felon in Possession of Firearm, and Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle.
