Sisters Sheriff's calls

• Deputies arrested a Sisters woman on charges of fourth degree assault and menacing after she allegedly went after her former husband's previous ex, who was helping the man work on a trailer.
  
  Ex No. 2 allegedly scratched Ex No. 1, hurting her knee and ripping her ear when she yanked out an earring.

• A man accidentally whacked his friend on the head with a folding chair while trying to protect him in a fight with two other men. The injured man was taken to St. Charles Medical Center.
  
  No one sought to file charges.

• A man kicked a dog who chased his two small dogs. The owner of the kicked dog got very upset. In a separate incident, a man threatened physical retaliation after a man threw a pine cone at his dog, who was trespassing on the thrower's property. Touchy, touchy, touchy.
  
• A business owner had a dispute with his landlord. Each changed the locks on the business. A deputy advised the landlord to proceed through the courts.
  
• A road injured deer crawled up onto a woman's deck to die. A deputy moved it to a common area and called for removal.
  
• A man reported the theft of guns and cash from his house.
  
• A man reported that someone tried to enter his house through an unlocked window, but deputies were unable to locate an intruder.
  
• A woman reported being chased by dogs, which caused her to crash her bicycle.
  
• A driver fell asleep at the wheel just east of Sisters, drifted into the oncoming lane and forced another driver to run into the ditch and a fence to avoid a collision.
  
  No one was injured. The sleepy driver was cited for failing to maintain his lane of travel.

Information in "Sisters sheriff's calls" is taken from log entries and reports of the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office.
