Man allegedly assaults friend dating his ex girlfriend

On 03-12-2016 the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to the Ukiah Valley Medical Center to contact a reported victim of an assault with a deadly weapon.

Upon arrival, Deputies contacted an adult male who had a wound to his right inner leg, near his knee consistent with a stab wound.  Deputies learned the adult male was at a bar in Redwood Valley when he was attacked for no apparent reason by Zachary Buschbacher.

Deputies learned Buschbacher was a friend of the adult male and that Buschbacher was dating his ex-girlfriend.

While at the business, the adult male was confronted by Buschbacher and without saying a word was struck on the left side of his face with a closed fist. At some point during the physical assault the adult male grabbed Buschbacher by his shoulders when he saw what he believed was a "blade" in Buschbacher's hand.

The adult male pulled Buschbacher towards him and downwards in self defense resulting in a stab wound to his leg.

The adult male was subsequently transported by private vehicle to the Ukiah Valley Medical Center for treatment.

A search for the Buschbacher was conducted and he was not located.

On 03-13-2016 Buschbacher arrived at the Sheriff's Office Ukiah station at the request of Deputies and was subsequently placed under arrest for assault with a deadly weapon in regards to the incident.

Buschbacher was booked into the Mendocino County Jail where he was to be held in lieu of  $30,000.00 bail.
