On July 17, 2023, at about 12:20 a.m., a Humboldt County Sheriff’s deputy on patrol in the area of U.S. Highway 101 south of Trinidad conducted a traffic stop on a speeding vehicle unable to maintain its lane.
The deputy contacted one occupant of the vehicle, 50-year-old Aaron Joseph Thuney of Redding. Inside the vehicle deputies observed a firearm and an open box of alcohol in plain view. Thuney was detained and the California Highway Patrol was requested to conduct a DUI evaluation.
Deputies recovered the firearm and found it to be loaded. During a search of Thuney’s vehicle deputies located drug paraphernalia.
Thuney was arrested and booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on charges of felon in possession of a firearm (PC 29800(a)(1)), person prohibited in possession of ammunition (PC 30305), carrying a loaded firearm in a public place (PC 25850(a)), possession of a controlled substance paraphernalia (HS 11364(a)) and driving under the influence of alcohol (VC 23152(a)).
