BLUE LAKE – Law enforcement is looking for a Blue Lake man who is accused of sexually abusing a 9-year-old girl.
The Humboldt County Superior Court has issued a warrant for the arrest of 68-year-old Roy Alan Gibbs, who was reported missing by his wife on May 30. According to the suspect’s wife, Gibbs left their residence at about 12:30 p.m. to go for a walk and never returned. The wife and family members searched for him, then reported him missing to the Sheriff’s Office later that evening.
The next day, May 31, deputies responded Blue Lake Elementary School to assist Child Welfare Services (CWS) with a reported sexual assault case. CWS made sure victim, a 9-year-old girl, was safe and with her mother.
Detectives then searched Gibbs home on Raymar Avenue in Blue Lake.
On Tuesday, June 7, a forensic interview was conducted with the assistance of the Humboldt County Child Abuse Services Team (C.A.S.T.). According to a press release from the Sheriff’s Office, the victim disclosed repeated sexual abuse that occurred over several years.
With this information, detectives obtained a warrant for the arrest of Gibbs, whose bail is set at $2.5 million.
The warrant accuses Gibbs of continuous sexual abuse of a child, eight counts of lewd or lascivious acts using force or fear with a child under 14 years of age, providing harmful matter (pornography) to a minor, aggravated sexual assault of a minor (oral copulation) and terrorist threats.
If you know the whereabouts of Roy Alan Gibbs, contact the Sheriff’s Office immediately. Do not attempt to apprehend Gibbs as he is possibly in possession of a firearm. Anyone with information related to this case is requested to contact Detective Scott Hicks at (707) 445-7301.

I couldn't find anything about who the alleged victim was in relation to Gibbs (by that I mean was the girl a family friend's daughter, a relative etc...) but obviously these are very serious charges leveled against him.
