Eugene police arrested a 63-year-old man on suspicion of unlawfully using a weapon after a downtown cafe employee reported that he tried to force his way in Friday morning before the business opened, then took some wine and a butter knife.

Officers confronted Terje Orbeck outside Perugino, on the 700 block of Willamette Street, using a Taser to shock him before booking him into jail on three felony charges, including first-degree criminal mischief and second-degree burglary, according to jail records, and information provided by a police spokesperson and cafe owner Kaz Oveissi.

Prosecutors on Monday, July 28 filed two criminal charges against Orbeck: second-degree burglary and first-degree criminal mischief. An indictment filed on Aug. 1 added an additional charge of unlawful use of a weapon.

Orbeck on Sept. 2 pleaded guilty to second-degree burglary and first-degree criminal mischief, with the weapons charge dismissed, according to online records for Lane County Circuit Court. He was sentenced to 10 days in jail, with credit for time served, along with 18 months of probation.

An employee described Orbeck damaging the locked front glass door before walking into the unlocked building that contains the coffee shop and wine bar. Once inside, the man walked into a side entrance and took a bottle of wine as well as a butter knife from the cafe, said Oveissi.

Melinda McLaughlin, a Eugene police spokesperson, said Friday that a police report was not immediately available, but dispatch records described a man possibly with a knife.

“Call details indicate there may have been a butter knife and suspect threats to use deadly force. A taser was deployed,” McLaughlin said in an email.

Oveissi said he’s owned other businesses downtown over the last 25 to 30 years, sustaining property damage, such as broken windows, “many times.”

But he added that the details from this morning’s encounter stood out. Oveissi said he tells employees to quickly flee rather than try to confront anyone posing a threat. The employee did not try to confront the intruder, but was still shaken up and opted not to work as scheduled, he said.

The suspect, Oveissi said, “actually is willing to go behind a bar, grab a bottle of wine and grab a knife — that had never happened before, like that. He escalated it, for whatever reason.”
