Armed Robber Takes Wallet and Cash

Press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office:

Humboldt COunty Sheriff's OfficeOn Dec. 2, 2018, at about 3:20 p.m., the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office Emergency Communications Center received a report of an armed robbery that had just occurred at a residence in the unincorporated area of Eureka.

According to the male victim, at about 3 p.m. the victim arrived at a residence on to 5100 block of Cummings Road to purchase a vehicle. The victim met with the “seller” outside the residence and then was asked to enter the residence to continue the sale. When the victim entered the residence, two suspects, a male and a female, confronted him. The male suspect brandished a firearm at the victim and then stole the victim’s wallet and over $5,000 in cash.

The suspects fled the scene with the “seller” in a gray Acura SUV with New Jersey license plates.

At about 7:50 p.m., deputies on patrol in the Bayview area located the suspect vehicle unoccupied in the area of Busey Lane and Howard Street in Eureka. Deputies were unable to locate the suspects nearby.

Deputies have identified the “seller”, but are still working to identify the two other suspects. Those suspects are described as:

  • An American Indian male, 30 to 35 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall, approximately 180-200 pounds last seen wearing blue jeans and a black sweatshirt. The suspect was last seen in possession of a short-barrel shotgun.
  • A White female, 20 to 25 years old, 5 feet 4 inches tall, approximately 120 pounds, last seen wearing blue jeans and a black shirt.

Explains why people drive so fast around here, as if they are running from the cops, because they probably are.

HUH? What are you talking about?
There’s no mention of pot anywhere in the article.
You must be a Trump supporter, cause he likes to make stuff up with no credible foundation, too.
See how I took two unrelated things and tied them together, just like you.

heroin and crime with a side of child endangerment is more accurate for this location. The perp Jorden S. has already been outed on Humboldt Thieves.

Again, what are you talking about? Can you site whatever source you are using? I’m not going to start a Facebook profile just to scroll through years of conjecture about people’s dirty laundry.

“Humboldt Thieves” is a facebook group, the victim posted it. feel free to educate yourself. this location was in the news in August for 11 ounces of heroin and an article on this blog.

Doesn’t have to be stolen for sale on black market usually isn’t. Never bring cash. Know and trust who you are dealing with. Both parties are usually armed.

this event is rare. the perp is on a tweakathon and matches the MO as the Azalea Park robbery perp.

well black market assumes someone is trying to avoid paying taxes, that wasnt noted in this story. i personally have bought vehicles on craigslist and was fine everytime. i agree with you about not bring ing cash, one simple solution is to write a check and you can go to the bank and check to see if the funds are available. having a gun never hurts unless you lose it

Okay that’s it I’m just gonna come out say it. You guys don’t grasp that well. I think it was a weed or other deal. There I said it. I feel much better.

but you would be incorrect. if you want some real life reality show entertainment, go on Humboldt Thieves. the victim is demanding his 5k back from the perp and the perps mom is defending him in a very jerry springer kind of way.

Wow. Was the Victim buying an unpermitted car? Must be the victims fault for attempting to purchase a vehicle outside a dealership… NOT!

I saw an item recently that said the Arcata P.D. offered a safe location to do sales of this nature. Seems like a good idea😊

*American Indian…… WTF if wrong with HSO? The rest of the United States understands that the terminology “American Indian” is a racist continuation of colonialism and ignorance, and such verbiage is no longer politically correct or accepted as the correct verbiage when describing the ethnicity of one that is or appears to be Native American. The HSO has at least one Native American serving actively as a deputy. Deputy Greg O’Rourke…. how do you feel about being called American Indian by your own employers? Modern Colonialism at its finest. Pff

Outraged over nothing. This is where we are as a society. In his autobiography, Russell Means explained why he preferred Indian. Every single person born here is a native American, regardless of skin color or ethnic heritage.

Russell’s video’s on the constitution, during his battles with the corrupt congress, are what inspired me to learn more about the constitution. He was one hell of a man, a great leader. Thank you, Stars, for bringing him up, fresh to mind.

“Every single person born here is a native American, regardless of skin color or ethnic heritage.”
Yes.

If we must catagorize – ‘originies’ fits. It doesn’t begin w/a vowel followed by two consonants.

As an anthropology major I took several classes on Native American studies. All of my Native American instructors and other native people who I met while in those courses perfered the term “indian”.

I suppose the debate between two white people is anecdotal at best. All I can say is my wife is Native and if you called her American Indian you had better be prepared to take a seat and receive a tongue lashing and download on the current state of modern colonialism and white supremacy . Sorry dude got his wallet stolen.

Off subject. But this is HUGE. Watch the Firefighters turn their backs, and then the French Police remove helmets and stand WITH the people AGAINST Macron!

What would you expect from a country whose leader has a 20% approval rate. I mean Trump’s approval rating is 46% the same as Obama’s was at the same time in his presidency and he gets over 90% negative coverage in the news media. Can you imagine how hysterical people would be if his approval rating was around 20%

Today the Ambulance drivers joined the protests too.
The fake news doesn’t share the real news about the protests being against the globalist’s one world GOVT, but at least they’ve finally shared they’re against the ‘govt’ lol.

Political correctness is like filing a tax return. There’s no way of doing it right, no matter what you do something is going to be wrong.
