On Aug. 14, 2008 at approximately 8:40 p.m., two white female adults were observed entering the Eagle Creek Inn (25960 SE Eagle Creek Rd., Eagle Creek). Once inside, the female suspects stole a set of car keys and a vehicle alarm remote belonging to one of the on-duty employees. The women were observed on a security surveillance camera system taking the employee's keys and remote -- then stealing the employee's vehicle from the Eagle Creek Inn parking area.

The stolen vehicle -- a white 2003 Chevrolet Impala -- was later recovered on Aug. 16, in the middle of an old logging road in the vicinity of 36500 SE Wildcat Mountain Dr. in Eagle Creek.

One of the two female suspects captured on the security surveillance system has been identified as:
