Wild Chase Ensues After Burglary in the Loleta Area

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 Monday, January 30, 2017 at about 7:55 a.m. Humboldt County Deputy Sheriffs responded to a report of a business burglary in the 1000 block of Wiyot Drive in Loleta.  Deputies spoke with the reporting party who stated he arrived at the incident location and noticed a Wiyot Tribe owned vehicle and over $10,000 worth of Aaron Ray Waggonertribe equipment and property had been stolen.  During the course of the investigation, a possible suspect was identified as 41 year old Aaron Ray Waggoner.  Waggoner was spotted by witnesses getting into a vehicle and driving down Quinn Rd towards Copenhagen Rd at a high rate of speed.  A pursuit ensued.  Deputies eventually discontinued the pursuit due to Waggoner’s excessive speed and wanton disregard for public safety.  A local citizen soon observed Waggoner running through his property.  The citizen chased after Waggoner for a short distance and then observed
Waggoner get into the stolen vehicle.  The citizen followed Waggoner in his vehicle for a short distance and notified law enforcement of his whereabouts.  Waggoner was later spotted by deputies near the Bear River Housing entrance where he fled on foot and was again pursued by deputies.  A lengthy foot pursuit ensued across four lanes of busy freeway traffic.  Deputies eventually apprehended Waggoner on the west side of the freeway near Loleta.  Waggoner was found to be in possession of the keys from the above stolen vehicle.  The stolen vehicle was soon located nearby with stolen license plates attached to it.  A search of the vehicle revealed stolen property from the burglary. A search of Waggoner’s luggage also produced stolen property from the burglary.

Waggoner was arrested and taken to the Humboldt County Correctional Facility where he was booked for burglary, possession of stolen property, evading a peace officer with wanton disregard to public safety, resisting arrest, vehicle theft, possession of unlawful paraphernalia, false registration with the intent of defrauding, and two outstanding warrants.  His bail was set at $100,000.

This case is currently under investigation.  Anyone with information for the Sheriff’s Office regarding this case 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.

Note to meth-heads:

If you haven’t yet sold the car to buy speed, please understand that running from the cops will only make them mad. If you piss off the cops, they might get dangerously excited and beat you with their batons, once they catch you. Reckless endangerment will add at least, oh, 20 minutes to your jail time, in this county.

Getting clean in jail probably ain’t fun either…

All speed freaks are guaranteed time in jail whilst drying out. Enjoy!

The main problem with Meth is, it is not lethal enough. If you want to die, try Russian roulette.

Am I missing something? Where does it say he is on meth? He looks more like a junkie to me. I see he was arrested for unlawful paraphernalia but that could be needles or crack/meth pipe right? I guess I’m just not savvy enough on the drug scene.

A junkie is a junkie dude. Meth, heroin. All the same. I know i made jokes, but it is sad that this guy chose this path in life. Maybe even had a decent family, who knows. But he had, has, his own free will. He made his choices. His loss.

For petes sake- what difference does it make if he is on heroin, meth, or booze? He is a danger to everyone.

“The (burglary and assault) victim stated he arrived home and suspect, 40 year old Aaron Ray Waggoner, “pistol whipped” him. “

I’d say Henry Rollins let himself go, but that’s not him and the real Henry still has a career.

The most prevalent recurring theme in most of these busts over the years is “…..outstanding warrants”. Are our police properly outfitted/supported to locate these criminals, do parole officers have any obligations here? Why is it that a large proportion of these criminals have multiple warrants or have violated parole but are not locked up?
