Sounds like a Western Screech-Owl.

I'm hoping you all can give me ideas on a small owl my friends hit while
driving east on Hwy 138E from Roseburg. The bird was described as a "horned
owl" a little larger than a softball. They believed it was a "baby" GHO and
the picture I saw (poor quality) showed it was fully feathered, but I know
it wasn't a GHO. I am just not.familiar with the small owls we have here.
They did turn the bird (still alive) over to law enforcement that was in
the area.Thoughts?
Thank you
