James Cody Solheim, 24, was arrested during a traffic stop Wednesday on outstanding felony warrants for probation violation and numerous other charges related to the Oct. 30 hold-up, Healdsburg Police said.

Solheim is believed to be one of three people acquainted with the Johnson Street victim and invited in that morning to look at some medical marijuana the victim had.

At least one of the robbers then produced a handgun and ordered the victim to lie on his bed while the trio fled with the marijuana, police said.

A Sonoma woman, Melissa Ann Hirshfield, was arrested in Windsor four days later.

Solheim is the second suspect arrested in the case.

He is being held for suspicion of robbery, burglary, possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and violation of probation for a previous drug case, authorities said.

The case remains under investigation, and further arrests are anticipated, police said.
