Unusually Large Police Presence

Between 4 and 5 this evening, large numbers of law enforcement vehicles heading north kept Highway 101 humming.  One southbound driver counted 14 between Eureka and Loleta including a small convoy of 6 traveling tightly.  A further 6 police conveyances were seen between Loleta and the Salmon Creek exit just south of Myers Flat for a total of 20 altogether. Different agencies insignia were displayed and a few were unmarked. This large number far surpasses the normal 1 or 2 seen on this stretch of road.

Yesterday, a rumor of a drug bust in the Garberville area was heard but no actual details have been confirmed.

I’ll bet that it was another one of those Homeland Sucurity drills.

Or maybe there is a good doughnut shop in the vicinity?

When I passed the Bigfoot giftshop there were six vehicles inspecting the small white car that got shot up by another vehicle somewhere north of redway which might explain the numbers and vicinity. A drive-by shooting in sohum on 101! Read all about it in the newspapers.

I could be wrong but I thought the driveby happened on the 23rd and the police presence happened on the 22nd so I don’t think they are related.
