Suspect Sought After Fleeing Vehicle Containing Assault Rifle

This is a press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office. The information has not been proven in a court of law and any individuals described should be presumed innocent until proven guilty:

On Feb. 5, 2018 at about 11:05 p.m., a deputy with the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office was conducting a routine patrol in the area of Highway 299 near Friday Ridge Rd. when he observed a green Nissan sedan travelling eastbound on Highway 299 with one headlight out and expired registration.

The deputy attempted a traffic stop on the vehicle. The driver, later identified as Harvey Robert Crews Jr., failed to yield and continued into Trinity County. The deputy continued to pursue the vehicle onto Salyer Loop Rd. and then onto Campbell Ridge Rd. towards Humboldt County. Crews then pulled over at a gate on the road, exited the vehicle and fled on foot downhill into nearby brush.

The Hoopa Valley Tribal Police responded to assist. Deputies were unable to locate Crews. During a search of Crews’ vehicle, deputies located a loaded AK-47, a loaded rifle, a loaded pistol, ammunition and processed marijuana.guns HCSO
Crews is described as a white male adult, medium complexion, 5 feet 9 inches tall, approximately 165 pounds, black short hair and hazel eyes. Crews is wanted on a felony warrant for evading a peace officer and possession of an assault weapon.

Anyone with information about Crews’ location or related criminal activity is encouraged to call the Sheriff’s Office at (707) 445-7251 or the Sheriff’s Office Crime Tip line at (707) 268-2539.

Marijuana Caliphate for sure, prolly that weed only will last a day, but still weed off the streets is less weed.

For such a drug of peace there sure seem to be lots of illegal weapons that go hand in hand with weed.

Wonder what is in that box with the green triangle on it? Possibly a Marijuana Caliphate Manifesto that is handed out at grade schools?

The pistol was in the lock box so he could legally drive with it in the car.

This guys a genius. Hauling that kind of hardware in a vehicle with no registration and a headlight out. That screams pull me over to law enforcement. Also, where’s the rest of the evidence? The rifle ammo is 5.56. That’s typical for AR style rifles. The AK typically fires 7.62X39. And who shoots Hornady superformance out of a semi auto?

You can shoot AK rounds thru a AR15 but you cannot fire AR rounds thru a AK just like you can soot a38 round thru a 357 but not the other way you use the 38s for target shooting cheaper rounds

umm there is no way to fire a 7.62×39 round through a .556 barrel just like you can not fire a .556 through a 7.62×39 barrel. now certain configurations allow for a mod kit to be installed however those kits cost more than just buying a weapon of the caliber you wish to shoot.

Yes NATO 7.62 is close to a .308 and 5.56 is close to a .223. (not .556 btw)

Cannabis and lions tigers and guns oh my….. like everybody living in Rural Humboldt doesn’t have bags of pot, ammo, pistols and rifles…..
Stupid lame laws anyways….. we live in the country, rural america….. Cannabis shouldnt be the deal breaker for owning firearms, I would way ratger prefer that drinkers and alcoholics were denied access to firearms…. alcohol makes people do some pretty stupid stuff….. Hope he gets away!

it’s the item to the south of the assault boots and north of the assault cellphone. all of which are lying on the assault table. i can assault you with just about anything, which is why many feel “assault” weapon is a nebulous term.

One is a typical AK-47 with the folding stock removed, the other one is a suppressed MP5.

It is an MP5 replica that is chambered in .22 Long-Rifle, it is not a Suppressed MP5 H&K, but a .22 clone

They caught him with full-auto rifles last November… and drugs, and an active warrant.
Why was he ‘out’?

(Quote from Times Standard)

> “Crews had an active warrant and was found hiding inside the residence. While taking Crews into custody deputies saw drug paraphernalia, several AR-15 type rifles, and high capacity magazines. A search warrant was obtained for the residence and the it was later determined one of the rifles had been converted to fully automatic. “

no idea.

ca. is not cooperating with the feds, i wonder if that has anything to do with it. my lay understanding is that modifying a firearm to achieve a function that is prohibited, a’la Randy Weaver, will get you automatic federal conviction. i would not be shocked to learn that California’s activist government is endangering us to spite the Feds. not that I am at all a fan of the federal government, either.

Well the California government has threatened jail time to any business owners that cooperate with Federal investigators.

What a genius, like someone said above driving around and in possesion of illegal firearms with no registration and no headlight. I bet you this guy is too sissy to even use any of that anyways. Just for intimidating people and robberies.

looks like a knock-off of a Cold Steel brand war tomahawk, missing the handle.
