On May 2, 2018 the Humboldt Area CHP issued a press release relating to a fatal motorcycle collision in Eureka, CA. In that press release, a stolen
identification card located at the scene led investigators to misidentify the rider of the
motorcycle as Charles Roybal III.
Later that day, the rider was positively identified as
Dustin Finson. The California Highway Patrol would like to clarify that Mr. Finson is not a
suspect in the theft of Mr. Roybal’s identification.
The Humboldt Area CHP extends their
sincerest condolences to the family of Mr. Dustin Finson.
