HCSO Press Release (issued 11/22):

On 11/18/2023, at about 2:15 a.m., Humboldt County Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the area of the Fields Landing boat ramp south of Eureka for the report of a theft and assault.

Upon arrival, deputies contacted a 45-year-old male victim who reported he had been driven to the location by a female acquaintance. The victim reported that, upon arrival at the parking lot, a dark colored pick-up quickly approached them. Two unknown male suspects exited that vehicle and brandished firearms at the male victim while they removed him from his vehicle. The suspects then removed property from the victim and then fled the area, also taking the victim’s vehicle.

Through investigation by the deputies, it was determined that the female acquaintance had participated in the crime. The female was identified as 39-year-old Nicole Stockhoff of Fortuna. On 11/19/2023, deputies responded to the Fortuna area where they located and arrested Stockhoff with the assistance of officers from the Fortuna Police Department. Stockhoff was transported to the Humboldt County Correctional Facility where she was booked on the felony charges of carjacking (PC215(A)), robbery (PC211), and conspiracy (PC182(A)(1)).

At this time, the victim’s vehicle is still outstanding. That vehicle is a gray, 2002, Toyota Tundra with California license plate 27989P2. If anyone sees this vehicle, please do not approach the vehicle and contact the HCSO or your local law enforcement.

This case is still under investigation
