On Friday morning, December 8th, the Arcata Police Department was contacted by the California Department of Transportation and informed a maintenance worker had located a knee scooter along HWY 101 south of Westhaven.
Officers responded to the location and conducted a search of the area. During the search, 22-year-old Erin Henry, reported missing to the Arcata Police Department on November 30th, was unfortunately discovered deceased a short distance east of HWY 101.
With the assistance of the Humboldt County Sheriff/Coroner, Ms. Henry’s body was recovered, and the preliminary on-site investigation revealed no sign of foul play. An autopsy is pending.
The 22 year old Humboldt State University was in her last semester student who was last seen November 25 by her roommate in the Sunnybrae area southeast of Arcata.
