From the Eureka Police Department

On 03/25/15 at about 2:15 p.m., a Detective from the Eureka Police Department Problem Oriented Policing Unit (POP) spotted a person behind the vacant Blue Heron Motel at the 2200 block of Broadway.

The detective stopped and made contact with six subjects who had forced entry into a few rooms. Officers responded to assist and located 9 grams of methamphetamine and a high-end Cannondale bicycle. None of the subjects could prove ownership of the bicycle, so it was taken for safekeeping.

Four of the six subjects were arrested and transported to the Humboldt County Correctional Facility. Anthony Armstrong, 27, and Lindsey Idler, 26, were booked on drug related warrants. Phenicia Case, 21, was booked on Eureka Municipal Code violation warrants. Jordan Cardoza, 20, was booked on fresh charges of possession of methamphetamine. All four subjects are of Eureka.

Attached is a picture of the Cannondale bicycle. If you believe this bicycle is yours, please call (707) 441-4373. You must have your police report number for the theft report and be able to prove ownership. Ownership can be proved by providing the serial number, receipt, or picture.
