Downed tree on Highway 4 in the STF Arnold, CA – A flurry of calls requesting a check on loved ones stranded in the Arnold area by the recent winter storms that dumped more than five feet of snow has Calaveras County Sheriff’s Deputies working overtime. While sheriff spokesperson Sgt. Greg Stark disclosed that there have been no physical rescues of residents, he adds that with no electricity, there is no phones or cell coverage, causing concern of people being either stranded or needing assistance. “We have two deputies up there in side-by-side utility vehicles that are equipped with tracks that allow them to access some of these areas impacted by the snow. So, they’re checking on people making sure they have food, water, obviously no power, but if they have any medical needs, getting medical attention to them,” detailed Stark.
