Home Invasion in Burnt Ranch Last Night Leaves One With a Head Injury
[Public domain via Wiki Commons]
According to Sheriff Tim Saxon, “Dispatch received a 911 call about 8pm last night reporting a home invasion in the area of Burnt Ranch.”
The three suspects, Saxon explained had “tied up the victim and struck him on the head causing injury.” Then they fled the scene in an unknown direction.
“The suspects took cash, jewelry and firearms that had been in safes,” Saxon said. “There is no vehicle description at this time. However, detectives were able to collect a significant amount of evidence for follow up.”

Info on suspects when available please. We have had a few robberies in the area recently.
It doesn’t sound like this was a marijuana heist so the occupant could have used lethal force!
Must not of had time to grab an equalizer.
Unfortunately California is not a stand your ground state so anybody involved in discharging a firearm towards those who are in the process of robbing him can be charged with attempted murder or manslaughter even.
But California does have a Castle doctrine. This guy would’ve been within his rights to use lethal force to protect himself
Castle Doctrine is more robust than SYG with regards to home invasion. Any forced entry into an occupied dwelling is considered violent and can legally be met with lethal force regardless of any intent or weapons possessed by the perp.
They did use lethal force . Unless there was 2 shootings burnt Ranch California. Over heard a conversation in Office Depot from a family member. Dude that died had 3 kiddos . Sad very sad
Oh, shit!
That’s close by.
I hope Humboldt sheriff and CHP are involved. That’s right next to Humboldt County line.
I wonder if the robbed had a clue as to whom it might have been…
The Humboldt county sheriffs will not respond until they think it’s safe. They only do marijuana raids. They refuse to do the job they were hired to do. Protect and serve. All they do is harass people and bandolier their properties. They need a oversite team to make them accountable for the way they handle their job. Littering on private land and destroying property can no longer go unpunished. Make them accountable for their job!
