Early Saturday evening, March 16th, Coos County Dispatch received a 911 call regarding a disturbance on Bruce Road in Coos Bay after a resident reported that their kitchen window had been damaged by what appeared to be shots from a pellet gun at approximately 6:45pm.
First arriving deputies observed multiple damages to the property, including a kitchen window with several holes and inoperable outdoor light fixtures, consistent with being shot by a pellet gun. Further inspection of the damage and the trajectory of the pellets suggested that the shots originated from a neighboring property.
The suspect, identified by deputies as 41 year old Christopher Bergstrom of Coos County, is also the respondent of a Stalking Protection Order, which prohibits him from interacting with the victim in this case.
Mr. Bergstrom was located by deputies in a vehicle outside of his residence during the investigation and further investigation led to the discovery of two firearms and ammunition unlawfully concealed by Mr. Bergstrom and witnesses reported frequent use of a pellet gun by Mr. Bergstrom, correlating with the damage observed on the victim’s property.
Mr. Bergstrom remains in custody after being arrested and transported to the Coos County Jail on multiple charges including 2 Counts of Violating a Stalking Order, Criminal Mischief, and 2 Counts of Unlawful Possession of a Firearm.
