Press release from the Eureka Police Department:

On June 1, 2026, at approximately 1:00 p.m., Officers with the Eureka Police Department (EPD) responded to the area of Wabash Avenue and Lowell Street following reports of two vehicles driving at a high rate of speed and possible gunfire.

Upon arrival, officers secured the scene and conducted an area canvass, during which multiple spent shell casings were located in the roadway. Detectives with EPD’s Criminal Investigations Unit (CIU) responded and assumed responsibility for the investigation.

Based on witness statements and video surveillance obtained by investigators, it appears a white Porsche SUV was stopped at a stop sign when an occupant of a black Mercedes-Benz or BMW SUV fired approximately six to eight rounds toward the Porsche. Following the shooting, the driver of the white Porsche fled the area at a high rate of speed, with the black SUV appearing to pursue the vehicle.

At this time, investigators have not located either vehicle involved in the incident, and it is unknown if anyone was injured as a result of the shooting. The investigation remains active and ongoing. Anyone with information related to this incident is encouraged to contact the EPD Criminal Investigations Unit at 707-441-4300.
