On the morning of 07/24/2024, a Ukiah Police Department (UPD) Officer learned John McCullough had a $1- Million Dollar (bail amount) felony warrant for his arrest out of Lake County (CA) for [422(a)PC- Criminal Threats, 646.9(a)PC- Willfully, Maliciously, and Repeatedly harasses another person with threats, and 401(a)PC- Assisted Suicide]. The UPD officer was familiar with McCullough from previous law enforcement contacts and the  officer knew McCullough to have a mechanic shop in the 700 block of North State Street in Ukiah. 

Multiple UPD officers responded to McCullough’s shop and a bystander told officers McCullough was on his way to the shop now. UPD officers knew McCullough was associated with a certain vehicle and officers used the FLOCK license plate camera reading system to assist them in the apprehension of McCullough. UPD  officers learned the vehicle McCullough was associated with was traveling in the area of North State Street.  McCullough eventually arrived on scene at the shop and he was taken into custody by UPD officers without incident. McCullough was transported to the Mendocino County Jail where he was booked and lodged. 

The great teamwork and hard work approach by UPD officers kept the citizens of Ukiah and Mendocino  County safe while displaying the core values of the Ukiah Police Department; Safety, Professionalism, and  Community Service.  

As always, our mission at UPD is to make Ukiah as safe a place as possible. If you would like to know more about crime in your neighborhood, you can sign up for telephone, cell phone, and email notifications by clicking the Nixle button on our website; www.ukiahpolice.com.

    • It always comes down to the same old shit doesn’t it.
      These felonias apes get a slap on the wrist for a violent crime and then set loose only to reoffend and prey on the public at large.
      I say fuck the three strike rule Because one strike is enough.
      There are plenty of vacancies in our state prison system thanks to our slimy worthless feckless Governor who cleared them out during covid and put the badasses back out on the street.
      Let’s begin filling them up once again with the violent offenders and when they are full build some more.
      Another consideration would be outsourcing our predatory prison population to China or one of the Muslim countries and problem solved.
