California Self Defense: 74-Year-Old Ferndale Woman Detains 21-Year-Old Burglar at Gunpoint Until Sheriff's Department Can Get to Her Rural Home :: 11/11/2021
Last night, a woman in her seventies caught a man burglarizing her residence in the Ferndale area and held him at gunpoint until the Humboldt County Sheriff’s deputies could arrive at her rural home and assist her.
According to Samantha Karges, spokesperson for the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Department, about 9:19 p.m, deputies were sent to a reported burglary in progress at a home in the 700 block of Poole Road.
Karges told us, “Deputies arrived on scene and observed a 74-year-old an elderly female in possession of a firearm, detaining a male suspect. The resident complied with deputies’ requests to set aside the weapon and the firearm was rendered safe.”
Deputies took the suspect, whom Karges identified as 21-year-old Dustin Beau Campbell into custody.
“Through their investigation, deputies learned that the resident arrived home to find the door open and several items out of place,”Karges told us. “While inside the home, the resident located Campbell. At that time, the resident drew her personal firearm, holding Campbell at gunpoint until deputies’ arrival.”
Karges explained, “Campbell was booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on charges of first-degree burglary (PC 459/461(a)).”
As always, anyone with information about this case or any related criminal activity is encouraged to call the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office at (707) 445-7251 or the Sheriff’s Office Crime Tip line at (707) 268-2539.
