The Mendocino County Sheriff's Office on Tuesday provided an update on the May 14 shooting, which took place near the community of Covelo, about 180 miles north of San Francisco. One man died in the shooting and two others were injured.
According to the sheriff's office, deputies were dispatched to an area north of Covelo around 9 p.m. after a disconnected 911 call. Deputies said an unidentified male caller told dispatchers he needed help for a friend before the call disconnected.
During a search for the 911 caller on Mina Road, deputies were approached by a group of people who reported that an unresponsive male was found a mile away on Hulls Valley Road.
Multiple firearms were found near Zavala Estrella, along with expended cartridge casings.
At the hospital, deputies were able to interview the man being treated for gunshot wounds and determined both incidents were related. Later that morning, deputies located a third victim on Hulls Valley Road, an adult male who was also found with apparent gunshot wounds.
Deputies said on May 20 that they found evidence of illegal cannabis cultivation under the control of a drug trafficking organization, but did not provide additional information about the group, citing the ongoing investigation.
Anyone with additional information is asked to contact the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office dispatch at 707-463-4086 and select Option 1. Tips can also be given anonymously by calling 707-234-2100.
