NEWBERG, OR (KPTV) - Two drivers in separate stolen vehicles were arrested following a crash in Newberg over the weekend.

On Sunday morning, officers responded to a report of a suspect that had just stolen a person's Toyota Land Cruiser. The stolen vehicle was located minutes later as it went through town, according to police.

The suspect attempted to elude police through downtown Newberg, then crashed into an occupied Buick Regal near East Franklin and College Street.

The driver in the Toyota, identified as Randy Lee Cooper, 27, of Portland, was arrested for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, attempting to elude police, third-degree assault, reckless driving, and other related crimes.

1. Nice looking couple and

have so much in common. I think it'll work out for them.

2. Probably already turned loose. Oregon, or at least Portland, is famously easy on car thiefs

4. I see folks getting better results from..

posting their vehicle info on the Portland subreddit than from counting on the cops to
care about it.

And yeah, I agree with you that there's not much for the thieves to fear from the legal system.

3. How nice.
