Nighttime shooting under investigation in Redwood Valley
Sheriff's investigators probe a Thursday shooting involving 20 year old Scott William Knight who was treated and released from Howard Memorial Hospital in Willits for a .22 wound to the shoulder. Knight, acquitted in January in a separate Daly City hitchhiker case, says a southbound car stopped him on Highway 101 near Laughlin Way, a man approached, fired, and Knight drove himself for treatment. He was last year arrested in Willits in the Adam Bernard case, with a jury finding the prior shooting justifiable.
