Seven prior cases; one dismissal before yesterday's arrest for Benjamin Dimmick


Seven prior cases in the system before today's arrest. Four of these cases were in 2016. The one case dismissed was from 2016.

EPD Press Release:

On January 31, 2018, at about 3:48 p.m., officers with the Eureka Police Department located a vehicle associated with felony warrant suspect, 21 year old Benjamin Dimmick. The vehicle was parked near his residence on the 3500 block of California Street.  

Due to Dimmick’s history of fleeing and violently resisting arrest, officers set up a perimeter around the residence.  Upon contact, Dimmick exited the rear of the residence, jumped over a fence, and fled through a greenbelt.  K9 Vex began trailing Dimmick east through the greenbelt.  Dimmick exited the greenbelt near Ponderosa Court and was met by a perimeter officer.  Dimmick was taken into custody without further incident.  He was found to be in possession of peppery spray and Soboxone.  

Dimmick was transported and booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on felony warrants for felon in possession of a firearm and carrying a concealed dirk or dagger as well as fresh charges for possession of tear gas, possession of a controlled substance, resisting arrest, and probation violation.
