BEND, Ore. — Authorities say three security guards were arrested for wrongfully detaining two people at an Oregon eclipse festival.
The Bend Bulletin reported the three guards were arrested Tuesday morning at Big Summit Prairie and later released with their charges dropped, but the Crook County District Attorney’s Office is reviewing the case.
The Bulletin reported Sheriff’s deputies arrested Jared Leoney, 22, of Bothell, Washington; Ryan Schroeder, 37, of Arlington, Washington and Thomas King, 44, of North Bend on suspicion of criminal trespassing. Leoney and King were charged with assault, because the man detained required medical attention. The security guards had suspected the two people were cooking drugs in a camper.
