WESTON â A sergeant with the Umatilla County Sheriffâs Office went to jail after a domestic violence incident that occurred over the weekend at his home in Weston.
The sergeant, Roy Swiger, reported himself to the Oregon State Police on Monday, July 26, according to Undersheriff Jim Littlefield. State police arrested Swiger and took him to the Umatilla County Jail that day. Littlefield said Swiger called the sheriffâs office after he called the state police to report the incident.
Littlefield described the incident as an âaltercationâ between Swiger and his wife that was âcompletely out of character for Sgt. Swiger.â He said he did not know Swigerâs condition when he was arrested.
