On 05-06-2022 the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office received a call about a possible assault which occurred in the 32000 block of Shimmins Ridge Road in Willits, California.

The Deputies learned that at approximately 5:05 PM a 33 year-old adult female was parked in a vehicle in the 32000 block of Shimmins Ridge, when Tesla Hencz, drove past. Deputies believed the adult female and Hencz had been arguing because they were both romantically dating the same person.

Hencz turned her vehicle around and rammed into the front of the adult female’s vehicle.  During the incident the adult female, heard a single gunshot and her vehicle’s tire deflated.

Hencz then left the area towards the direction of Highway 162. Deputies checked the area but did not locate Hencz or her vehicle and a BOLO (Be-On-The-Look-Out) was issued to local law enforcement agencies.

On 05-07-2022 a Mendocino County Sheriff’s Deputy noticed Hencz driving her vehicle in the Laytonville area.
