Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office press release:

On 08-12-2014, at approximately 10:30 a.m., Humboldt County Sheriff’s Deputies saw a white Chevy pickup truck parked at Johnsons Quality Motel, Redwood Drive, Garberville. The truck matched a description of a truck possibly involved with burglaries and other theft related offenses in the Garberville-Redway area. The deputies learned the driver of the truck was staying in room #15. The deputies knocked on the door to that room and it was answered by Natasha Aspinwell, 24 years old, from King Salmon. Aspinwall was holding her 5 month old male infant when she was speaking with the deputies. Deputies learned Aspinwall was on formal felony probation with a search clause. While deputies were at the front door with Aspinwall, deputies at the back of the hotel room saw the window screen push out and an adult male attempt to flee the room. The male was detained and identified as Steven Buskirk, 36 years old from Eureka. Deputies learned Buskirk was also on felony probation.

Deputies detained another male located in the hotel room, who verbally identified himself as Travis Quiett.
