Skeletal remains of local man recovered by Lincoln County Search and Rescue
Lincoln Co. Sheriff's Office
On 03/24/2023, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office responded to a remote area off the 1000 Line Rd outside of Toledo, OR after a citizen reported finding bones consistent with a human skeleton. The area the bones were located in is steep, brushy and heavily forested, leading the Sheriff’s Office to call out its volunteer-based Search and Rescue Team to safely access the area. Search and Rescue Team members, in coordination with Sheriff’s Deputies, located the bones, determined they were human in origin, documented the area, and retrieved the remains. Based on previous knowledge of the area, Sheriff’s Deputies coordinated with the Lincoln County Medical Examiner and the State Medical Examiner's Office to identify the remains as 41-year-old Isaiah Eggert of Toledo, OR. Isaiah was reported missing from the Newport area in October of 2021. There are no suspicious circumstances in this case. Isaiah’s next of kin have been notified.
