Felon

So if you're a convicted felon, you're not supposed to have a gun. And, you shouldn't play with one for fun, especially sitting in the parking lot of a convenience store.

The CAT, or Criminal Apprehension Team, of the Kennewick Police Department gets a lot of busts just because they're using extra patrols, and keeping their eyes peeled for suspicious and weird activity.

Wednesday morning, officials and security at Highlands Middle School in Kennewick noticed a very suspicious person hanging around on school grounds, so they called police.

Authorities say the pedestrian struck and killed in a casino parking lot by a SUV was hit by a wanted felon who mistakenly thought police were chasing him.

UPDATE - 20-year-old David Atterbury surrendered Tuesday evening to the Tri-Cities Regional SWAT Team after the lengthy standoff. Two other arrests were also made. The standoff is now over. The situation is still developing, but Richland police and other authorities say the man involved is wanted for other crimes.

Federal officials say the 33-year-old man is a Washington state Army deserter, who's been working on a commercial fishing boat out of Westport for three years.

This guy is not your garden-variety 18-year-old felon.

A prison sentence is likely awaiting a gang member who admitted in court Monday he was fleeing police when he smashed into another vehicle, killing a Pasco father.

Kennewick police responded to an unusual incident Wednesday night on Columbia Drive.

Tri-Cities Crime Stoppers is looking for 30-year-old Michael Tapia Yniguez, in connection with violations of his release.
