EPD press release (June 17):

On June 1, 2026, at approximately 1:00 p.m., Officers with the Eureka Police Department (EPD) responded to the area of Wabash Avenue and Lowell Street following reports of two vehicles driving at a high rate of speed

and possible gunfire.

During the initial response from patrol officers, spent shell casings were located in the roadway. Detectives with the Eureka Police Department Criminal Investigations Unit (CIU) responded to the scene and assumed the

investigation.

During a canvas of the area, detectives were able to interview witnesses and obtain video surveillance from

the area. A white Porsche SUV and a black Mercedes-Benz SUV were identified as being involved in the incident.

On June 3, 2026, EPD officers located the involved black Mercedes-Benz parked in the area of 9th and N Streets in Eureka. The vehicle was seized and processed for evidence by detectives. On June 11, 2026, the

involved white Porsche was located in the area of Sonoma and C Street. That vehicle was also seized and processed as part of the ongoing investigation.

On June 16th, Detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Anthony Ramirez, 22 years old of Eureka, for three counts of attempted murder and one count of shooting from a vehicle.

On June 17, 2026, EPD officers located Ramirez in the 3300 block of Broadway and took him into custody without incident. Ramirez was subsequently booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on the listed charges.

Previous press release:

On June 1, 2026, at approximately 1:00 p.m., Officers with the Eureka Police Department (EPD) responded to the area of Wabash Avenue and Lowell Street following reports of two vehicles driving at a high rate of speed and possible gunfire.

Upon arrival, officers secured the scene and conducted an area canvass, during which multiple spent shell casings were located in the roadway. Detectives with EPD's Criminal Investigations Unit (CIU) responded and assumed responsibility for the investigation.

Based on witness statements and video surveillance obtained by investigators, it appears a white Porsche SUV was stopped at a stop sign when an occupant of a black Mercedes-Benz or BMW SUV

fired approximately six to eight rounds toward the Porsche. Following the shooting, the driver of the white Porsche fled the area at a high rate of speed, with the black SUV appearing to pursue the vehicle.
