BEND, OR -- The Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office is searching for a man they say drove a stolen car through multiple northeast Bend yards, Monday night. Just after 9 p.m., Residents around NE Empire and Layton were notified by phone that that deputies were looking for a wanted man and asking them to call 911 if they saw anything suspicious.

Investigators say Christopher Aviles drove a Subaru taken from Tumalo through several properties in the area before eventually running from the scene on foot. He was last seen wearing jeans or khaki pants and a long-sleeved shirt. Anyone with information in the case, or who knows where the suspect is, is urged to call 541-693-6911, reference 18-116594.
