UPDATE, 5:15 p.m.:

Folks on the Facebook page Fortuna Happenings have posted photos of the threatening messages allegedly posted to the windows of Aunna Bollmann’s home. Below are a couple of them, from Kristin Agajanian Ambrosini, republished with permission.

While the images are a bit blurry, some of the messages remain legible, including one addressed to the Fortuna police chief saying, “Casey Day I’m going to kill you.”

Press release from the Fortuna Police Department:

On Thursday, August 3rd 2023, at about 2:30 PM, Fortuna Police served a search warrant at the home of Aunna Sophia Bollmann in the 40 block of 11’ Street, Fortuna, California.

Aunna Bollmann, a 41-year old resident of Fortuna, had an active arrest warrant stemming from weeks of threatening and harassing phone calls to government officials. Aunna Bollmann had been threatening to kill elected County Officials, Elected City Officials, and City/County staff members via telephone, voicemail, and text message, and had posted similar threats on paper, which she posted in the windows of her home.

Over the past week, the threats became more direct and egregious prompting concern for the safety of community members and those she was threatening. The threats were not isolated to Fortuna Officials and were made to several officials in several jurisdictions throughout the Humboldt County region including Humboldt County and the City of Eureka. Section 422 of the California Penal Code makes it a felony for one to criminally threaten another. Additionally, section 76 of the California Penal Code also prohibits criminally threatening an elected official.

Bollmann wasbooked on her outstanding arrest warrant and additional charges will be submitted to the Humboldt County District Attorney for consideration and potential prosecution. As a result of the search warrant, documentation and digital evidence was recovered. The majority of written documents seized were specifically threatening to City and County Officials. As a result of this incident, Aunna Bollmann was transported and booked into the Humboldt County Jail.
