On the evening of March 6th, 2024, a Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Office (SCSO) Lieutenant discovered a large 2022 Hino box truck stopped in the middle of Shasta Vista Drive. Upon investigating, the Lieutenant noticed a strong odor of cannabis coming from the rear of the vehicle. The driver, Jairong Yu, 53, of Castro Valley, CA, informed the Lieutenant that he was hired by a start-up dispensary called “Sun Co” in Oakland, CA, to deliver 1,500 live cannabis plants to an illegal cultivation site in the Mount Shasta Vista subdivision of Siskiyou County.
