On May 9, 2026, at approximately 7:40 p.m., Humboldt County Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to a residence located in the 1000 block of The Terrace Road in Willow Creek to investigate a report of shots fired into an occupied residence.

Upon arrival, deputies contacted the resident, who reported he was inside the home when shots were fired into the residence. No injuries were reported. During their initial investigation, deputies developed information indicating that a red Hummer drove in front of the residence and that shots were fired from the vehicle into the home.

This case remains under investigation, and additional information will be released as it becomes available.

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

That’s scary.
That’s close by.
This is one instance when I wish we had cameras taking license plate numbers.

A red Hummer should be pretty easy to find.

Red Hummer? That’ll stick out like a sore thumb. They require frequent visits to gas stations.

Not if it’s a GMC EV Hummer…

Big difference between what most people would recognize as a Hummer (Humvee), and a GMC Hummer…

Which is worse, firing shots into an occupied dwelling or owning a Hummer?
