NORTH COAST, Calif. – A honey oil lab operation at a Sebastopol home resulted in injuries for the humans and animals who lived there and led to the arrests of four people.

On Thursday, Sebastopol residents Cameron Coull, 26, James Wood, 58, and Linzy Gingras, and Santa Rosan Douglas Baker, 39, were arrested in connection with the explosion, according to a report from Sgt. Juan Valencia of the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office.

At 9:30 p.m. Thursday, deputies were dispatched to the 1400 block of Industrial Avenue in the unincorporated area of Sebastopol to assist Gold Ridge Fire with a house fire that was the result of an explosion, Valencia said.

Valencia said that when deputies arrived, they first spoke with Wood, who was standing next to a fire engine, holding a small dog that had been burned in the explosion. Wood was outside the home smoking a cigarette and Gingras was at the home when the explosion occurred inside. Wood lives at the home with Coull and Gingras.

Coull and Baker were inside the home making honey oil from leftover marijuana when the explosion happened, Valencia said.

Valencia explained that honey oil is essentially concentrated cannabis, and the method to extract the oil from marijuana is a dangerous process.

Deputies and fire personnel found butane canisters and glass tubing that contained marijuana inside the home. Valencia said the explosion appears to be the result of an illegal butane honey oil lab.

Coull and Baker were transported by ambulance to an area hospital and admitted for their injuries. The two cats and dog were also taken by animal control for treatment, Valencia said.

The explosion caused the front door to be blown off the hinges and the windows to shatter. The dining room was blown off the foundation and pushed out approximately 18 inches. Valencia said there is also structural damage inside the kitchen. The home is a two-story building with five units, and the explosion occurred in the bottom center unit.

Sheriff’s property crimes and narcotic detectives responded to the home, and collected evidence and obtained statements. Wood, Coull, and Baker were issued citations due to medical conditions, according to Valencia.

Valencia said Wood was issued a citation for felony charges including manufacturing a controlled substance, animal cruelty, unlawfully causing a fire and a misdemeanor charge of violation of probation from a prior drug-related arrest.

Gingras was booked into the Sonoma County jail on felony charges of manufacturing a controlled substance, animal cruelty and unlawfully causing a fire. She remains in custody with bail set at $100,000, Valencia said.

Valencia said Coull was issued a citation for felony charges including manufacturing a controlled substance, animal cruelty, unlawfully causing a fire and misdemeanor violation of probation from a prior arrest.

Baker was issued a citation for the felony charges of manufacturing a controlled substance, animal cruelty, unlawfully causing a fire and misdemeanor violation of probation from a prior arrest, Valencia said.
