CLEARLAKE, Calif. – A Clearlake resident shot a man who police said was trying to get into his home on Monday night.

Clearlake Police Sgt. Rodd Joseph said 21-year-old Clearlake resident Mayfield Herbert Montes was shot during the late-night incident. Montes survived and has been hospitalized.

Just after 11:50 p.m. Monday Clearlake Police Officers responded to a mobile home unit inside of Southshore Mobile Home Park, located at 5725 Old Highway 53, on a report that an unknown male suspect was banging on the home’s windows, was trying to get inside the home and claiming to own property inside, Joseph said.

While en route to the call, dispatch received updated information that an unnamed adult male resident of the home claimed to have shot at the suspect and that the suspect had since fled the residence on foot, according to Joseph.

Joseph said that the suspect, identified as Montes, walked to a residence in the 5500 block of Cottage Avenue, where he was contacted by police and medical personnel.

Montes, who Joseph said was suffering from a single gunshot wound to his lower abdomen, was transported by ambulance to Adventist Health Clear Lake before he was taken by helicopter to an out-of-county trauma center.

In a late Tuesday night update Joseph said Montes was still hospitalized in stable condition and is expected to survive his injuries.

The resident who shot Montes, whose name is being withheld, was in lawful possession of the firearm which has been seized pursuant to this investigation, Joseph said.

Joseph said physical evidence located and uninvolved witness statements tend to support the resident’s claim that he fired in self defense to protect the lives of he and his wife, who was also at home at the time of the incident.

The resident was not arrested at this time and neither he nor his wife suffered any injuries during the incident, Joseph reported.

Joseph said the case has been forwarded to the Lake County District Attorney’s Office for review of charges against both the resident and Montes.

Anyone with information on this case is urged to contact Officer Michael Perreault at 707-994-8251, Extension 519.

CLEARLAKE, Calif. – A Clearlake man died Sunday after he was hit by a vehicle while walking in the road.

Jeremiah Fields, 35, died in the crash, which occurred on Sunday night, according to Sgt. Tim Hobbs of the Clearlake Police Department.

At 9 p.m. Sunday 26-year-old Clearlake resident James Adkins was driving west on Arrowhead Road near Ciwa Street in a 2005 Toyota Camry, while Fields was walking west on Arrowhead Road in the westbound lane near Ciwa Street, Hobbs said.

Hobbs’ report explained that Adkins did not see Fields, who was walking on the wrong side of the road, until he was too close to avoid a collision.

Adkins swerved to avoid striking Fields but was unable to do so and almost collided head-on with a vehicle that was traveling east on Arrowhead Road, Hobbs said.

The cause of the fatal collision is still under investigation, however, Hobbs said neither alcohol nor drugs appear to be a contributing factor in the collision.

As a reminder, Hobbs said it is safest for pedestrians to walk nearest to his or her lefthand edge of the roadway. Additionally this is required by law when walking on a roadway outside of a residential or business district.

President Calvin Coolidge and Mother Jones. Public domain photo.


“I was born of the struggle and the torment and the pain. A child of the wheel, a brat of the cogs, a woman of the dust … When a laborer sweats his sweat of blood and weeps his tears of blood a remedy is thrust upon the world. I am that remedy.”

Thus Mother Jones, the “most dangerous woman in America” according to those in power, described her life of suffering.

And really, those few words are a good summation of the first 60 years of her life. Hers was a life lived largely on the margins of the world, far distant from the tectonic movements of her day.

We know this at least: Mary Harris was born in Ireland in 1837 (although she later claimed a birthdate of 1830 to add to the grey-haired persona of a grandmotherly figure). She immigrated to Canada with her parents, graduated from school and worked for a time as a school teacher in Michigan.

She married a man named George Jones in Memphis in 1861 and had several children. Her first major encounter with tragedy saw her entire family, husband and children, die of yellow fever in 1867.

She travelled to Chicago and opened a seamstress shop just in time for the great 1871 Chicago fire. She had become the female counterpart to the protagonist in the old folk song “A Man of Constant Sorrow.”

Up until then, Mary Jones had lived a life of obscurity, leaving no trace of her daily struggle on the historical record beyond census records and what she later recalled to journalists. Her story is a warning to those who would oppress and a comfort for those who suffer still, that even the most obscure of us can blaze a trail across society, whose passing forever alters the status quo.

Her husband had been a member of a union in Tennessee. Perhaps that’s what spurred her to action after her life burned to ashes in 1871. Or maybe she was just plain pissed off and tired of the drudgery she had wallowed in her whole life.

Whatever the reason, beginning in the 1870s, Mary Jones sought community in the Knights of Labor, a national labor union that sought fair wages and working conditions for the country’s laborers. Having lost her family and her business, Mary Jones threw herself into her new role, and found in the struggle a new family. She was rechristened Mother Jones.

Following the philosophy of “wherever there’s a fight,” Mother Jones travelled the nation to support strikes by laborers in the railroad, steel, copper, brewing and textile industries. In the 1890s, she found her a home as an organizer for the United Mine Workers of West Virginia.

In a style that today would seem rambling and bombastic, Mother Jones’ public speeches were widely hailed at the time for their fervor and intensity. Upton Sinclair, author and exposer of the unhealthy meat packing industry in his book The Jungle, was a huge fan of Mother Jones. He described her fiery perambulations in these terms:

“All over the country she had roamed, and wherever she went, the flame of protest had leaped up in the hearts of men; her story was a veritable Odyssey of revolt.”

Her most powerful tool was her ability to weave stories into her speeches. In 1912, she gave her famous speech at a miner’s meeting in West Virginia – famous in part because it was faithfully recorded by a stenographer and remains the most complete example of her speaking style.

In that speech alone, she weaves together stories of the doomed miners and their meager lunch boxes, the clueless U.S. Sen. Dick and the mine owner’s wife and her pampered dog.

Mother Jones’ funeral on December 3, 1930, in Washington, DC. Public domain photo.

She exhorts the crowd, calling them her “boys” and passes around a hat to collect beer money for “the miners who came up here broke.” Is it any wonder she was labelled “the most dangerous woman in America” by a West Virginia attorney?

She was a self-proclaimed “hell-raiser” and when she spoke, the powerful groaned.

She focused so much on the economic and social evils of her day that she ended up on the wrong side of a few social justice causes.

For instance, she was opposed to woman suffrage. She believed that to advocate for the vote would serve as a distraction from the underlying economic issues facing working women. She saw the whole movement – in retrospect not entirely incorrectly – as a rich woman’s battle.

On the topic, she said publicly “the plutocrats have organized their women. They keep them busy with suffrage and prohibition and charity.”

As for her people, the workers, they had more pressing concerns. When the Colorado militia killed 20 women and children at a miner’s tent colony in Ludlow in 1914, Mother Jones raised enough hell for a Congressional hearing to finally be called. Oh sure, Mother Jones lost as many fights as she won. But in a career that spanned decades, that was still a lot of wins.

As the years went on, the gray-haired agitator continued her fight for the oppressed. She travelled to Mexico in 1921 for the Pan American Federation of Labor.

She lived her final years with friends and on her self-proclaimed 100th birthday, May 1, 1930, she gave her final public speech.

Although a short one, her final message to her “boys” the world over, was recorded on a moving picture camera, giving future generations a tantalizing peek at the woman who led a movement.

The U.S. Fire Administration reports that 93 firefighters died in the line of duty in 2017. Twelve were from California. Four came from the Cal Fire ranks. The California firefighters’ deaths were the result of vehicle accidents, medical emergencies and tree fall.

According to the Officer Down Web site, 134 law enforcement officers were killed in 2017, along with 29 police dogs, or K9s, that died in public service. Eleven officers were from California.

Nationwide, 52 law enforcement officers died as a result of a deadly assault, which includes physical assaults, stabbing and gunfire.

Honor these fallen safety officers, and the men and women that put their lives on the line every day in Lake County with your attendance. The public is encouraged to bring a small candle and holder or small flashlight for the ceremony.

NICE, Calif. – Authorities arrested a Northshore man last week after finding a butane hash oil lab, drugs and weapons at a home in Nice.

On Thursday, Lake County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Unit detectives served a search warrant at a residence located in the 3400 block of Clyde Street in Nice, according to Lt. Corey Paulich.

The residence was determined to be connected to Jose Gustavo Mena III, who was arrested on April 25 in possession of a loaded firearm and lock pick set, as Lake County News has reported.

Detectives contacted Jose Mena’s brother, Ryan Anthony Mena, 33, and Christina Elizabeth Muis, 26, both of Nice, at the residence, Paulich said.

Upon entering the residence, detectives located a butane concentrated cannabis extraction lab, commonly known as butane hash oil lab. Paulich said they also located approximately 15 pounds of marijuana, 1 gram of methamphetamine, glass pipes, 61 rounds of 9 millimeter ammunition, an extended 9 millimeter magazine, hypodermic needles and more than $11,000 in cash.

He said detectives also located a binder that was hidden in the house that contained dozens of completed shipping labels along with a log showing various amounts of money.

Detectives were able to confirm that Ryan Mena was on probation out of the state of Louisiana and had left the state without permission. Paulich said they also confirmed that Mena had previously been convicted of a felony.

Paulich said Mena was arrested and booked at the Lake County Jail for violations of California Health and Safety Code including chemical extraction of a controlled substance, possession of marijuana for sale, possession of controlled substance paraphernalia, possession of a controlled substance and a prohibited person in possession of ammunition.

Mena’s bail was set at $100,000. Jail records showed that he posted the required percentage of bail and later was released.

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA – The statewide network of county First 5 commissions will honor Assemblymember Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, D-Winters, with a Champion for Children Award on May 2 as part of First 5’s 20th Anniversary celebration on May 2nd at the capitol steps.

Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon (D-Lakewood) will deliver the keynote for the award ceremony.

Champion for Children Awards are given to legislators who have demonstrated their commitment to young kids in California by consistently supporting policies that improve the lives of families and children ages 0 to 5.

Assemblymember Aguiar-Curry is sponsoring a bill this legislative session to increase pay and recruitment of child care providers (AB 2292).

Only 14 percent of eligible infant-toddlers in California have access to subsidized care, in part due to a workforce shortage that ensued after more than $1 billion was cut from child care spending during the Great Recession.

Aguiar-Curry’s bill would create start-up grants to rebuild child care capacity and increase the reimbursement adjustment factor for infant-toddler care.

“The current reimbursement rate for infant-toddler care providers does not cover the cost of providing care, which has caused many providers to shut down or stop offering care for subsidized families,” said Camille Maben, executive director of First 5 California. “Assemblymember Aguiar-Curry’s bill will help reverse this trend and put our young children on track for kindergarten and beyond.”

Assemblymembers Joaquin Arambula (D-Fresno) and Kevin McCarty (D-Sacramento) will also receive Champion for Children awards on May 2.

First 5’s 20th Anniversary event will celebrate the local partners and state legislators who support its mission of ensuring California’s kids thrive. Kids’ games, a visit from Sesame Street’s Walkaround Rosita, and appearances by visits by state legislators will mark the event.

“Our kids are our collective future. These legislators’ commitment to the wellbeing of California’s youngest children is a step in the right direction,” said Moira Kenney, executive director of First 5 Association, which represents First 5s in the state’s 58 counties. “Families are struggling across our state – with poverty, quality child care, and access to early intervention services. By supporting kids in the early years, we can shape the course of their lives—and our society.”

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County’s annual burn ban – which addresses concerns over both fire hazard and air quality – starts on Tuesday, May 1.

All burn permits expire on April 30.

The burn restriction applies to all areas in Lake County. It includes all open waste burning, though exemptions are possible for agricultural operations, essential control burns for fire hazard reduction projects, public safety burns and others.

The annual burn ban was first implemented in 1986 in response to weather conditions that often create extreme fire danger and poor air quality.

A managed approach incorporating fire and air agency concerns has been implemented and improved upon for many years.

The ban allows a quick fire agency response to all fires observed from May 1 on, as they are all assumed to be uncontrolled fires unless specifically authorized by an exemption permit. This successful program is one of the primary reasons Lake County has superior and healthful air quality.

To obtain an exemption permit to burn after May 1, first contact Lake County Air Quality at 707- 263-7000 to determine need, then contact your local fire agency so that your burn site can be inspected for fire safety. After the fire agency notifies the air district that the proposed burn site is fire safe then an exemption permit may be obtained.

Anyone responsible for open burning during the ban without an exemption permit may be subject to citation, fines and fire agency response costs to extinguish the fire. Burn restrictions will remain in effect until Cal Fire declares an end to fire season.

Officials ask that community members help to reduce the danger and losses caused by uncontrolled fires, and protect Lake County’s clean air.

“Public cooperation is greatly appreciated and results in a safer and more healthful environment for us all,” Lake County Air Quality Management said in a statement on the ban’s implementation.
