Police want the Wolf Creek man for attempted murder, kidnapping and assault for a torture and beating case that left a woman unconscious since her discovery at a Grants Pass residence one week ago.
Grants Pass police are at that residence tonight with support from other law enforcement agencies, including Medford Police Department and Jackson County Sheriff’s Office. They reportedly found Foster back at the scene of last week’s crime.
An earlier alert today suggested police were active in the Sunny Valley area where 68-year-old Tina Marie Jones has a home.
