Press release from the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office:

Stuart May

Stuart May

On 1/21/2018 2019 around 6:21 PM the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to the 26000 Block of Mendocino Pass Road in Covelo regarding a Coroner’s Investigation. Upon arrival the Investigating Deputy was informed by the California Highway Patrol that an adult male, later identified as Stuart May, 66 years of age out of Covelo, was deceased. The investigation revealed that an Officer of the Round Valley Tribal Police was patrolling the area when he noted a damaged bicycle laying along the roadway. The Officer stopped to investigate and found the decedent laying to the side of the roadway. The preliminary CHP investigation indicated the damage to the bicycle appeared to have been caused by a vehicle collision and that agency initiated a felony “hit and run” investigation.

The Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office was able to determine the decedent may have been living in the Covelo area for a year or more but was unable to locate his residence or where he has been living. The Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s assistance in locating the decedent’s residence as well as assisting the California Highway Patrol in reconstructing the decedent’s recent activity as part of their investigation.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Communications Center at 707-463-4086 or the Coroner’s Division at 707-463-4421.

🕯Unfortunately your most likely right. Another one for the unsolved books, unless evidence or someone speaks up.

Such stupid, ridiculous response from people who dont give a damn thing. Give your bullshit a rest. Please. This was a living, breathing person who deserves at least a modicum of respect in death to determine possible family and friends.
