On November seventh, a man attempted to evade police after robbing a Kent business at gunpoint, leading to a brief chase and his eventual capture. The incident began when a twenty-seven-year-old man reported being held at gunpoint by a suspect who stole his work van. The suspect then fled the scene, driving west on James Street. An officer spotted the stolen van traveling at high speeds, but due to safety concerns, officers decided not to pursue. The van was later found empty after crashing near Auburn Way North and Thirty-fifth Street Northeast. The suspect was found hiding on a nearby porch and taken into custody. He was booked into the King County Jail and awaits further legal proceedings. This incident highlights the quick response of law enforcement and their careful consideration of public safety during high-speed situations.
