9 Bronco vs. Naked Guy On 08-11-2024, deputies attempted to contact a male sleeping in a stolen F550 and he fled leading deputies on a pursuit into King County. Washington State Patrol took over the pursuit which headed into Snohomish County before he went south to Seattle, crashed and fled on foot. He left his 4-yr-old son and girlfriend behind in the vehicle. We were able to positively identify the suspect and knew we would be meeting him soon. On 08-21-2024, at 09:22 am our deputies responded to a call of a suspicious vehicle at 74th Ave E and 188th St Ct E. When our deputy ran the license plate she recognized the owner as the passenger from the stolen F350 incident. Seattle, WA | Credit: Pierce County Sheriff's Department /TMX
