Man Abandons Truck and Child in the Middle of Eureka; Professional Fighter, Cass Bell, and Partner Help Keep Child Safe While Waiting for Police
Man detained is believed to have abandoned a child in a vehicle in the middle of the road. [Screenshot from video by Cass Bell]
According to Bell who went live on Facebook, “[W]e started filming when we realized [there] was a baby inside in case somebody recognized her or if the truck had been stolen and ditched.”
Bell, who recently announced he would be fighting again on April 9, wrote on his Facebook page, “We were scared the truck would be hit from behind since it was in the middle of the road, but luckily things didn’t go as bad as they could have.”
Eureka Police arrived on scene. They located and detained the man who left the vehicle. Child Welfare Services would be contacted, an officer said.
We have requested more information from Eureka Police.

For once Facebook was useful!!!
Going off arrest records, it was Paul Robert Jurkovich.
Surname suits the deed.
Good one
Thank you for making sure the baby stayed safe. The world needs more people like you two.
Cass TKO buddy!! It’s sad what drugs can do to people, I’m sure this guy loves his daughter, but he made a bad decision today. Thankfully the minor was discovered by good people. We need more good people like you down at the southern border right now, where 10000+ unaccompanied minors are scared and alone, abandoned by their parents as well, headed into the hands of the cartel! This is not how the world is supposed to work, and is sickening the level of child abuse that is going on in the world we live in. Much respect to you guys for looking after that little girl.
Most people, including those who don’t make a living physically bashing people, would have done the same. No we don’t need more people who make a living being violent.
Well, what do you called the armed forces?
Military , with violent , out of work people, building empires, destroying communicties, robbing natural resources, and of course the rape and pillaging of ethnic minorities.
We are people, with a history of violence.
Kiss kiss bang bang
“Most people, including those who don’t make a living physically bashing people, would have done the same”
I disagree. You and your tax dollars are funding the largest child trafficking ring in the world! Putting little kids in cages! Using them to smuggle drugs! For sex slaves, cheap labor! Making them sleep on concrete floors with Mylar blankets! We as a country should be ashamed of ourselves. And all this child abuse equals votes! The US doesn’t care about these kids, if they did they would hold the parents accountable! For abandonment! Yea I wish more people like cass bell would go down there and kick some ass! I’m tired of paying for abortions and child abuse!!! There’s a wall around congress but not around our country!! Wtf is going on it is truly a shit show!!!
That’s right. Turn it into something it isn’t. Sounds like your mother should’ve been fronted a few bucks some years back.
Just fyi unless you get an abortion youre not paying for it. They cost 4-500 dollars, with no knock out drugs/gas. That costs more.
Part of roe v wade decision was that no federal tax monies can be used for abortion which by the way is 3% of wbat planned parenthood does. If youd like to see less unwanted kids then support their efforts to supply birth control to all, and access to healthcare for all pregnant women choosing to have children regardless of how much they can pay.
If youre concerned about unwanted kids i suggest you change your stance on abortion, it ends the abuse before it starts. Its often a blessing for a child to avoid a life of abuse and rape;those kids dont usually make great adults and often continue the cycle as they know nothing else.
You ought to want to pay for it!
You are so wrong! We do pay for it at home and overseas with the women’s reproductive health executive order, signed January 28 , 2021

It’s an honorable profession. It’s not like he beats up unsuspecting, random strangers. All the participants are willing adults. They are paired by weight class.
Lmfao, you don’t realize that both fighters sign up, and get paid well for their time…. You people need to keep your own fears to yourself! You’d probably be the asshole to pass by the parked truck blaring your horn!
I’ve been involved in martial arts since I was five years old and been training mixed martial arts since 2011. I run across this type of thinking often.
There are two meanings of the word violent. One meaning refers to a sudden release of energy and the actions of sports including mixed martial arts certainly fall under this meeting. However the other meaning of the word violent does not necessarily apply to martial arts or combat sports at all, most of the very best combat sports asked fleets do not feel violent as they are competing.
I suspect that it’s hard for some people to imagine that there are individuals out there who are much much much tougher than they are. When you’re competing against another combat sports athlete, you understand that they are as tough as you are and that you’re not hurting their feelings, and they are completely capable of doing with any fiscal injuries that result from sport.
Dear Cass and Chelsa, THANK YOU SO MUCH for looking after the little one!!! We have a baby girl about her age. This made me cry!!! Cass, when fighting your next fight, focus some energy on the piece of shit who abandoned that baby girl!!! YOU’LL WIN!!! Not saying you needed any help. Good luck, and God Bless!!!
That’s my cousin and it breaks my heart to see this
Rilee, It is very heart breaking about your cousin. Please try to stay in touch with his child through the foster care system or even adoption. It will be a huge lifeline to her!! And you will feel good about yourself for keeping that connection.
I’ve never met Cass Bell in my life but he seems like a good dude. This video should put to rest any rumors about his, or his teams drug use. Good job you two, I’ll be in your corner!
Lol I would love to hear more about these rumors that you have heard. This is all new news to me
seriously cass you holding out on me this whole time?
Lol I guess so.
Good on Cass and Chelsa!!
What an absolute POS!
On the other hand…beautiful truck! I wonder if I could buy it at a police auction.
Been looking for a used Tacoma and it’s a bit like a fool’s errand!
Hell, maybe you could buy some class! Doubt it would do you any good.😔
That’s heroin and foil on his front seat! He’s pawning the camera cuz he’s only smoking it now. Truck will be for sale when he starts to shoot up. Hope he gets help before he loses it all
Omg! Hope the child is ok.
Don’t get a white one. I swear more than half of the wrecks I see around town involve a white vehicle.
Buster, there was a small child abandoned in a truck in the middle of the road. And your 1st thoughts are about getting a bargain Tacoma???
Cass & Chelsa
Awesome! Well Done.
That’s what rising to the occasion looks like.
OMG…MOST people would have done the same. What is with all the drewling admiration? Trying to smoke screen drug use? Drawing a big difference between some guy who may have lost his mind in this Covid hell and who doesn’t make a living with physical brutality and someone who happened upon the scene [edit] and who can find work being violent?
Irregardless of what most people would do, these people did a good deed.
They deserve recognition for it.
Their profession may not suit your tastes but is an accepted sport among agreeable consenting adults.
Is it brutal yes, but so is football, soccer and any sport where you repeatedly batter your head and body.
I do not approve of hard drugs and in this case I don’t know who is or is not using them. I’m not in the loop.
I don’t use facebook so I haven’t seen some of the pics.
Thanks hotcoffee, good comment. The 2 good samaritans did a good deed, and deserve to be thanked. It’s good that it’s known that there are good people out there, around here.
Literal heroin chillin on the seat with a baby in the back? Nobody saw the foil???
Wow, this is an example of why it’s important to normalize giving your child up for adoption. People feel like they are a bad person for having an abortion or giving it away so they try to care for a child despite mental health or drug addictions preventing you from being a good parent. I’m not saying all mentally ill people can’t properly care for a child but people with severe issues and addiction, like myself, could never care for a kid properly, 100% of the time. I’ve been responsible and thus still childless but even responsible people get pregnant and there should be no shame in giving the kid to a good home.
Normalize? Do some googling about adoption statistics and be sure to exclude those touted by agencies selling babies; look into the foster system if you really want to get a sense of horrors. Adoption? Normalize? I’d have a hard time giving a dog up for adoption and yet people do it with children….baffling. How about the Village it takes to raise children? Just a bunch of “Tar and Feather” neanderthals who do little to help stressed parents or children who had no parents or had abusive ones.
Yes normalize. There is no shame in giving a child a life you never could and being selfless enough to let them go. Circumstances for each birth mother are all different, some aren’t as sinister as you are projecting. Unless you have walked a mile in their shoes why don’t you keep your very narrow judgement to yourself?…..
Half-a-brain you obviously have zero experience with, or have some serious issues with adoption or the reasons that people do. For one, I am adopted. This conversation can go a couple ways, you with some healthy, positive understanding, or it’s going to be fight between us if you have moral hangups over something I had no choice in as a baby. You pick, yo.
Thank you, it’s hard to understand what Halfabrain was trying to say, but clearly he didn’t understand my point. Newborms rarely go into the foster system, if you give a baby up as soon as it’s born it’s generally adopted. Yes foster care has MANY flaws, just another reason to not keep a child past the common adoption age, traumatizing it along the way before CPS finally takes it. Adoption is almost always better than being raised by an unhealthy birth parent. Weak, selfish people consider it a right to keep a child and give them a horrible life whereas strong, ethical people care more about the child and give it to a healthy home.
You forgot to say healthy white newborns who have an adoption family waiting.
Read up on the 95% who do end up in foster care. So much abyse
CPS here is horrible,do you not read the news?? Our county is one of the worst in the state for the entire system!!! Volunteer with casa, youll hear the horrific stories of abuse and then what those kids face once in foster care. Beyond heartbreaking.
I just donated to planned parenthood in your honor, i truly hope you stop spreading lies about foster system.
Are you from the place on Myrtle in Myrtletown, the faux family planning place thats really a christian we’ll give you baby stuff but only if you sign documents youve read our pamphlets place, and tell women to not seek abortions, mainly not advising them its an option while taking federal tax dollars as a family planning place? You already got in trouble for breaking federal laws, dont push it with more lies!!!
Those were some insane “facts” especially the ones you made up about me and where I work. I have a good code of ethics so I left the sociopathic garbage fire you call Humboldt long ago. Yes, a majority of people do prefer to adopt their own race, even when they are not white. No duh you should line up.an adopting family in the 9 months you have to do so. I do hope no one’s stupid enough to believe 95% of newborns aren’t adopted. That numbers not true even for toddlers. That’s great you donated to planned parenthood in my name, overpopulation is the number one issue on the planet. Preventing and terminating unwanted pregnancies prevents a lot of child abuse. As a child psychology major I do not have to read up on the foster system which I already spoke negatively about, thanks. Next time provide a link for your outrageous claims.
This doesn’t mean the child doesn’t have a mother…
Or the mom passed or left which would explain a lot.
Lets have some semblence of compassion, ive had a few friends have mental breaks from traumas that culminate in heroin addiction.
At least this guy didnt leave her on a sidewalk in a carseat somewhere at night. Ir have kid in carseat in hotel room while shooting up.
It happens.
I would like to think that Cass and company were doing what any body would do, the right thing!!
Right. Why are so many commenters on a first name basis with the fighter?
Alot of us are his friends and we support him when he’s fighting.. that’s why..!
We support him in and out of the ring…Great Job Cass and Chelsea.. everybody need your morals..
Heartwarming story, there are good people out there. Thank you Cass and Chelsa.
Must have had a mental break down… 35k truck, 3.5k tires and rims, priceless child… Hope he gets some help, and the child get returned to mom… Best of luck to the child…
Nice that it occurred to someone that people can break down who are otherwise just young and/or under stress unimaginable for those more privileged. Don’t know the guy and maybe he is a jerk AND sick that out culture sells so many trucks that are oversized and obscenely expensive (could by a couple of houses in the SF Bay Area for 35k in the 70s) and absolutely not needed to do any job but make a lot of noise and waste resources while so many have to live in vehicles to survive and children are eating poisonous at worst and nutrition less food at best (unless they are from affluent families). Priorities…our culture is abandoning the basics and the vulnerable and yet so many jump on the guy’s case…of course what he did was wrong and perhaps super dangerous (wasn’t there, can’t say how dangerous..the “Rescuers” may be playing up the situation).
Lol u so burnt
” (could by a couple of houses in the SF Bay Area for 35k in the 70s) ”
Well, your username seems apt.
Just looked up the median price for a SF home today. $1,400,444
This is what makes Cass a champion… The fighting is great because that takes a big discipline a lot of training a lot of heart to be willing to put it on the line in front of that many people.. but this right here is why he’s a champion and will always be no matter what the record says 🙏🏽❤️
No Man alive would abandon a child Maybe a guy, dude,boy,or male but never a man if I have the definition of a man right.
👍
There is nothing magical, or earth-shaking about the word “man”. The definition of a man is as follows…”Man | Definition of Man by Merriam-Websterwww.merriam-webster.com › dictionary › man
Man definition is – an individual human; especially : an adult male human.”
A sign of the times. Those who would do as Cass & Chelsa did when they happened upon the scene, the future of mankind is in your hands.
The future of mankind is in the hands of a guy who makes his living through promoting violence? A school teacher, a social worker, a foster family or someone who helps poor families that might be hopeful but a face puncher? Yeah, our species is on the way out.
Yes, a guy who punches another’s person’s faces, and who gets punched back, both who have entered the cage willingly and voluntarily, and who confine thier violence to that cage. Good for them
NAILED IT!! 👍👍👍
Well Half, you’re going with us then. Anything else you want to troll about?
Halfacent- [edit] You cant see a truck left in the mudfle of the road. What part of parking lot dont yu or this moron not understand. As. For yur comments on cass Bell, if he was to meet yu. First yu wouldnt have the balls to say to him whst yu do on yur posts. Second. If you did build up the nerve to tell him what yu think about him and his occupation. He would probably let yu speak yur peace. Then shake yur hand and go about his buisness. Cus he has discipline and obviously compassion for others. Why dont yu just go to the next bellatore fights and have a protest. Please lmk if yu do. I want to film yur experience . [edit]
Every child has a mother.
Working at McDonald’s is more violent than fighting a few times a year with an opponent who is willing to compete.
A fighter can be creative, like an artist, and for some that’s where their talent lies.
No more violent than working a big feedlot or extracting/mining/fossil fuels.
Glad the child is ok, hopefully a wake up call for dad.
No arrest. Piss-OFF, “police.” You failed, again. Show me the booking number…
Detained is not arrested. Nor “interviewing people” is not going to jail.
Correct me if I am wrong; whats his booking number?
You are correct. Another example of White privilege.
Incorrect. In today’s times it’s called “woke”privilege. And it’s coming to a town near you. Sadly, illegal immigrants have more privileges than white people. White privilege does NOT exist anymore. Time to stop being tired and get WOKE! Lol. Whites are at the bottom these days
He was arrested, so chill
” Sadly, illegal immigrants have more privileges than white people.”
They have more privileges than POC who are citizens too.
True, all citizens for that matter
So your a racist troll!! I am sorry your white and are so at the bottom, maybe you should try a little harder since things are so equal among everyone it shouldn’t be that hard!!
So explain why so many people are risking their lives to come to this racist, hateful Country… if you can.
It’s not like there are no other Countries to go to….right?
What if we gave out free tickets to the Country of you choice, the only condition is you can’t come back here? Would you go?
I’m not racist, I’m woke sucka! And I think your comment is racist ! Time to cancel you! Things are far from equal, maybe you should read more! White culture has been cancelled. Why try harder, I want to sit back and collect like you do, it’s the new American way. Quit being racist against whites. It goes both ways you know!
Is he perhaps being held for a mental evaluation at a hospital?
Isn’t that what people wanted? A social worker and mental health evaluations instead of arrests and police actions?
I’ll wait for …. The rest of the Story …to form an opinion, And be grateful the child wasn’t physically injured.
If you dont like it then get off yer butt and start rallying for a new DA.
Theres only so much the cops can do.
Watch some of the old law and order tv shows, they show it pretty well.
