Kent Police arrested a 26-year-old Auburn man for investigation of eluding after a pursuit that began in the Valley and ended a few miles later along Pacific Highway South in Federal Way, just south of Kent.
A Kent officer on patrol at about 2:50 a.m. Sept. 2 spotted a blue Volkswager Jetta traveling on West Meeker Street missing a plate, according to a Sept. 5 Kent Police social media post.
When the officer passed the car, the driver reportedly tried to hide his face. Two passengers were in the car. The officer through research discovered it might be the same car reportedly involved in a Tukwila incident where a male and a female occupant allegedly pulled a gun on a security officer near the Westfield Southcenter mall, according to police. The car had recently been sold to an Auburn man
