People in the County, including those with other law enforcement agencies were surprised to hear that the FBI was in Arcata yesterday. I have emailed the FBI as well as HCSO and EPD to see if they were notified.
Heard back a few minutes ago from FBI San Francisco Media Coordinator Cameron Polan.
"Hi John,
The FBI conducted court-authorized law enforcement activity on 9/6 at the following locations:
1100 block Buhne St., Eureka
3100 block Severt Ln., Eureka
These actions were not related to court-authorized law enforcement activity on 9/6 on the 800 block 11th St. In Arcata."
On 9/10, HCSO PIO Meghan Ruiz confirmed "that the sheriff was indeed notified of FBI activity last week."
EPD PIO Laura Montagna told me, "We provided one EPD uniformed officer to stand by on this incident. We had no knowledge of the operation."
