Caleb Logan Spurlock Sentenced to 22 Months in Prison for Months-Long Crime Spree

HILLSBORO, Ore- On February 24, 2025, Caleb Logan Spurlock pleaded guilty to four counts of criminal mischief in the first degree (court case number 24CR31920) and three counts of unlawful use of a weapon (court case number 24CR27262). He was sentenced to 22 months in prison by Washington County Circuit Court Judge Kathleen Proctor. Deputy District Attorney Mahalee Streblow prosecuted these cases.

From October 2023 through May of 2024, the defendant used a sophisticated slingshot loaded with metal ball bearings to shoot out the windows of several vehicles as they drove near Pacific Avenue in Forest Grove. This was one mile from where the defendant lived with his parents. 14 victims, including an off-duty detective with the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, were targeted. They all reported similar stories—they were driving down the street when something hit their vehicles and shattered their windows. Several victims found metal ball bearings in their cars after the attacks, and many were hurt by the shattered glass. These crimes caused significant unease in the community as residents believed they were hearing gunshots.

Forest Grove police set up camera systems in the area and eventually recorded one of the attacks. The footage showed a man in a hoodie with an electric scooter shooting at passing vehicles. On May 24, 2024, they spotted the defendant committing another shooting and arrested him. He had an electric scooter, a slingshot, and a box full of metal ball bearings.

Between February 9-11, 2024, the defendant also caused approximately $68,000 in damages to 21 vehicles parked at a Beaverton car dealership where he was previously employed. He smashed the windows of the vehicles. These acts were caught on surveillance cameras. The video depicted a man later identified as Mr. Spurlock committing the crimes. He was seen leaving the scene on the same electric scooter used in previous crimes.

The Washington County District Attorney’s Office commends the work of the Forest Grove Police Department and the Beaverton Police Department for their work in identifying and apprehending the defendant.

In addition to his prison sentence, Judge Proctor ordered the defendant to pay more than $77,000 in restitution to his victims and to serve two years of post-prison supervision upon his release.
