HCSO Seeks Lance Andrew Borgner and Christina Ann Higgins IN CUSTODY


HCSO Seek Suspects in Pepper Spray-Fueled K-Mart Parking Lot Confrontation - Andrew Goff/Lost Coast Outpost

Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office press release:

On 02/10/14 at approximately 1:20 p.m. a male victim and his girlfriend were in their vehicle in the parking lot of the Kmart store in Mckinleyville. They were approached by a male subject who they recognized as Lance Andrew Borgner, who pointed a can of bear pepper spray at the male victim through the car window and demanded money. The victim told the suspect he did not have any money. Fearing she was going to be pepper sprayed, the female victim exited the car and saw a female who she recognized as Christina Ann Higgins approaching. The female victim quickly got back into the car, located the keys and placed them into the ignition. The male victim continued to tell Borgner that he had no money, but stated that if Borgner followed them to the bank he would withdraw some and give it to him. Borgner then directed Higgins to get into the car with the victims. As Higgins opened the passenger door to get inside, the male victim accelerated and sped away.

...Borgner and Higgins got into their vehicle and chased the victims to the area of Giuntoli Lane in Arcata, where Borgner rammed the victim’s vehicle causing it to leave the roadway. The victim vehicle then re-entered the roadway and drove to the Arcata Police Department with Borgner and Higgins still following. Borgner’s vehicle was last seen pulling into the parking lot of Spotlight Video in Arcata.
