BAKER CITY — An Oregon State Police trooper administered three doses of Narcan, a nasal spray that can reverse the effects of an opioid overdose, to a suspect in a stolen car investigation on Interstate 84 in Baker County on Saturday, Aug. 26.

The suspect, Fernando Leonel Robles, 26, of Ontario, was taken by ambulance to Saint Alphonsus Medical Center, Baker City, where he was treated and released. Robles is in the Baker County Jail. He was arraigned Aug. 28 in Baker County Circuit Court on charges of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and giving false information to a police officer.

Robles was arrested with a second suspect, Shawn Ashley Camp, 39, of Gresham. Camp is charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and felon in possession of a restricted weapon (a dagger).

Both are in the Baker County Jail on $25,000 bail. Their next scheduled court appearance is Sept. 8.

The incident started Aug. 26 around 8 p.m. while OSP Sr. Trooper Andrew McClay was patrolling the westbound lanes of Interstate 84 near Milepost 324, about 20 miles southeast of Baker City near Durkee.

In a probable cause affidavit, McClay wrote that he saw a truck parked on the left shoulder of the freeway, with no license plates.

When he stopped to check on the car, Camp stepped out of the truck. He was “acting very animated, and was sweating profusely,” McClay wrote.

Another man got out of the truck, who McClay later identified as Robles. Robles initially gave McClay a false name of Angel Robles, according to the affidavit.

When McClay asked the men about license plates, Camp told the trooper that he had just bought the truck. McClay then found a Virginia license plate in the truck’s bed. A police dispatcher checked on the plate and confirmed that the truck had been stolen in Nampa, Idaho.

McClay arrested both Camp and Robles. While searching the two, McClay found drug paraphernalia, including pipes, lighters and an empty syringe.

Both Camp and Robles were taken to the patrol truck driven by Baker County Sheriff’s Deputy Bo Hansen, who assisted in the investigation.

While searching the truck, McClay and Hansen found knives, including an auto-opening knife, as well as a loaded syringe.

During the search, McClay wrote in his affidavit, Sgt. Craig Rilee from the sheriff’s office told him that Camp had said he and Robles had recently smoked fentanyl.

When McClay went to Hansen’s patrol truck to read the Miranda rights to Robles, “Robles was unresponsive and I ended up administering Narcan.”

Robles didn’t respond to the first or second doses, but he did respond to the third dose, McClay wrote. Robles was then taken by ambulance to the hospital.

In addition to the local charges, Camp was on probation from Multnomah County for a first-degree robbery conviction, according to McClay’s affidavit.
