On May 6 and 7, the Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Office investigated a possible stolen trailer and modular home that was allegedly located in the vicinity of Dangel Lane and Quartz Valley Road in the unincorporated area of Scott Valley.



According to an SCSO press release, the vehicle and modular home were located and it was determined the trailer and modular home were stolen from Red Bluff, California, on May 5.



On May 7, a deputy and a sergeant responded to recover and investigate the theft of the modular home, valued at $38,000.



The trailer and modular home were located in a driveway in the 12000 block of Dangel Lane in the vicinity of Quartz Valley Road.



While the SCSO deputy and sergeant were investigating the theft, which was previously confirmed by running the vehicle identification number, a suspect was identified as Chance T. Henson, 41, of Fort Jones.



The release states that Henson was found to have a vehicle matching the description of the pickup observed towing the trailer and modular home from the Red Bluff location to Scott Valley.



Additional evidence was also secured at two locations. The suspect’s explanation for how he acquired the trailer and modular home, which he claimed he purchased from another party, could not be reasonably substantiated by investigators, the release states.



During the investigation, a small quantity of heroin and paraphernalia were also located.



Henson was arrested and charged with possession of stolen property, vehicle theft, possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.



He was transported to and booked in the Siskiyou County Jail in Yreka.





Sheriff Jon Lopey stated in the release, “We are fortunate this vehicle trailer and modular home, valued at $38,000, were recovered. We are also thankful a suspicious citizen reported their initial observations, which led to the investigation and recovery of the valuable property and arrest of a suspect for serious auto-theft, possession of stolen property, and drug offenses. Anyone with any information about this incident is urged to contact the SCSO’s 24-hour Dispatch Center at (530) 841-2900.”
