The National Weather Service has issued a High Surf Advisory from 10:00 a.m. Thursday through 10:00 a.m. Friday. Seas are expected to build into the upper teens and peak between 20 and 23 feet Thursday night. The swell period will be long – 16 seconds – which will result in powerful breakers in the surf zone. Officials stress that the surf zone will become increasingly dangerous and some minor beach erosion is possible.
A Gleneden Beach man, Patrick Scott McKillop-Skeahan, 19, has been charged with burglary, theft and criminal mischief for three incidents in Depoe Bay in October. The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department investigated a burglary on Tillicum Street October 14. Deputy David Boys arrived to find the home severely damaged and items missing. The victim later reported $9 thousand in damage to the home. An incident October 15 on Ridge Place also showed extensive damage to the home and items missing. A third home on Wakash Trail also suffered damage; an investigation shows the crime likely occurred about the same time. Deputy Boys contacted McKillop-Skeahan November 15 because of warrants for his arrest and he was taken into custody. After being interviewed at the jail, he was charged November 23 with two counts of burglary and theft, and three counts of criminal mischief. Bail was set at $430 thousand.
