Sonoma County Domestic Violence Suspect Captured in Mendocino County

SONOMA COUNTY, CA -- A Bodega Bay man suspected of assaulting his girlfriend last month was arrested at a Mendocino County motel Thursday morning, a Sonoma County sheriff's sergeant said.

Sheriff's detectives learned Sean Cameron, 33, was possibly staying at a Fort Bragg motel and placed it under surveillance, Sgt. Spencer Crum said.

Cameron was arrested around 11:45 a.m. at the motel in the 1200 block of South Main Street in Fort Bragg, Crum said. He was booked in the Mendocino County Jail on a $250,000 arrest warrant.

Cameron is suspected of trying to strangle his girlfriend during an argument at her Salmon Creek home in Bodega Bay on Feb. 19 and he left before deputies arrived around 8:30 a.m., Crum said. A $250,000 warrant was then issued for Cameron's arrest for felony domestic assault and assault with a deadly weapon.
