A Humboldt County man suspected of stabbing another man near the Ukiah homeless shelter earlier this month has been arrested, the Ukiah Police Department reported.

According to the UPD, officers responded to the Building Bridges Community Center at 1045 S. State St. around 8:45 a.m. April 2 for a report of a stabbing. When officers found a victim with stab wounds, they rendered first aid and called for an ambulance.

The victim was identified only as a “47-year-old male transient from Ukiah” who had suffered wounds not considered to be life-threatening. He was transported to Adventist Health Ukiah Valley for further treatment.

The suspect was identified as Adam L. Nott, a 32-year-old man described by the UPD as being a transient from Humboldt County who had recently been staying at the overnight homeless shelter operated by Redwood Community Services as part of its Building Bridges Community Center.

According to the UPD, the assault began at a nearby gas station, then “continued into the dirt lot just south of the shelter.”

On Sunday, officers were notified by the Lake County Sheriff’s Office that Nott had been booked into the Lake County Jail for charges unrelated to the stabbing. UPD detectives then interviewed Nott and charged him with assault with a deadly weapon. Nott remains in custody at the Lake County Jail under $30,000 bail.

Anyone with information on the case is urged to call the UPD at 707-463-6262.
