SPRINGFIELD, Ore. (AP) — A man who allegedly struggled with three police officers and reached for a loaded gun before his arrest was released from the Lane County Jail because of the county’s longtime budget shortage.
But the Register-Guard reports that Springfield police are searching for Robert L. McCullen again after a grand jury indicted him on federal gun charges.
Springfield police say it was their last resort in trying to keep McCullen in jail until his trial.
If he’s found, McCullen will appear before a judge who will determine whether he’s a flight risk or danger to the community.
