Update 4:04pm

  According to Humboldt County Sheriff's Office:

 

Humboldt County Sheriff’s Deputies continue to investigate the shooting that was reported to official this morning. At about 2:00 p.m. deputies found the body of a deceased adult male near a marijuana grow site.   The preliminary cause of death appears to be a gunshot wound. Deputies do not expect to find additional victims but are continuing to search the area.  Investigators have learned that the shooting likely occurred last evening and involved four individuals: the suspect and three victims. Of the victims, one was airlifted to an out-of-the-area hospital for treatment for gunshot injuries. The second victim is deceased. The third victim was uninjured during the incident. The identity of all three victims is being withheld.   The suspect, Mykal Wilde, 28 of Eureka, was arrested this morning and has been booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility for one count of murder and one count of attempted murder.   The motive for the shooting is still under investigation although Sheriff’s Detectives believe there was a dispute over illegal activity.   Additional information will be released as it becomes available.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office responded to the Kneeland area this morning after receiving a report that a shooting had occurred in a marijuana garden there. At about 9:15 a.m. deputies responded and located one person who had been shot. The victim was conscious

At least one man shot in Kneeland, reportedly at a marijuana garden.  Authorities on the lookout for 28-year old Mikal Wilde (sp?), believed to have a .45 handgun and driving a 1993 green or black Ford F-250.

Mike Dronkers is doing his mid-day show from home today, which means a few things:

1.  The phone number is different.  Call or text 786-FOLK (786-36755). Some voicemails will be played on the air, so keep it clean!

2.  Fun will happen.  (No spoilers yet).

3.  Errors will certainly occur.  

4.  Your DJ doesn't have the same access to music, but will still do his damndest to find your song!

Since I'm hosting the cocktail hour, I thought it might be nice to post the recipe for tonight's beverage. Perfect for a hot day this is a watermelon cooler from Daryl Robinson, host of the Cooking Network show "Drink Up"
