HCSO led SWAT team assists EPD in arresting suspect


Just confirmed it was Kevin Lee Haberman. There was a BOLO out for him. This is related to the investigation that resulted in the arrest of local attorney Michael Acosta and others. He posted bail.

The HCSO led SWAT team is a multi agency team, similar to the  Humboldt County Drug Task Force.  EPD has several members on the team; Fortuna PD is part of the team along with Humboldt County Sheriff deputies.

Also, EPD Chief Watson provided more information and  photos via tweets.







With the assistance of the multi-agency Humboldt County SWAT team, @eurekapd Officers have a wanted suspect, Kevin Lee Haberman, in custody after a surround & call-out operation at an apartment on 600 block of W. Hawthorne Street, Eureka.

Around 4:06 PM, a EPD officer on uniformed patrol spotted a vehicle known to be associated with Haberman (age 41) near the address.  EPD subsequently developed information confirming he was inside. A perimeter was established & SWAT requested due to info he was armed & dangerous.

Contact was made with Haberman who agreed to surrender.  He was taken into custody safely after exiting the apartment at 5:45 PM.
