Besides chasing repeat offenders and traffic stops, are HCSO deputies investigating and arresting any other criminals?

On Jan. 26, 2022, at about 8:37 p.m., a Humboldt County Sheriff’s deputy on patrol in the Eureka area observed a motorcycle traveling on 5th Street at a high rate of speed.

When the deputy attempted to conduct a traffic stop on the motorcycle, the driver failed to yield and a pursuit ensued. The deputy pursued the motorcycle for approximately one-half mile onto 13th street, where the driver eventually yielded.

The driver of the motorcycle, identified as 26-year-old Nathaniel Shane Murner, was taken into custody without incident following the deputy’s investigation.

Murner was booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on charges of evading a peace officer (VC 2800.1(a)), driving without a license (VC 12500(b)), driving under the influence of alcohol (VC 23152(A)), driving with a suspended license – prior conviction (VC 14601.2(A)) and violation of probation (PC 1203.2(A)(2)).
