Good morning, Corvallis.

A Linn County woman was arrested in Sweet Home after she allegedly left the scene of a hit-and-run crash on April 18— that seriously injured a motorcyclist who was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital in Corvallis— and she now faces charges of felony failure to perform duties of a driver and reckless driving.

Kelsey Provo from Innovation Law Group explained that a federal judge in Eugene ordered DHS to temporarily reinstate the visas of two international students—a 32-year-old doctoral candidate at OSU and a 29-year-old British master’s student at UO—after questioning the government's reasons for revoking their SEVIS records. Both sides have two weeks to prepare for the next hearing to determine if the visa revocations were illegal due to a lack of due process.
