A suspect is in custody after intentionally ramming his vehicle into two high-end luxury cars at a Bellevue dealership yesterday. Bellevue Police responded to the Bentley dealership located at 1882 136th Place NE shortly after 8:30 p.m. yesterday after reports of a black Honda occupied by one person intentionally and repeatedly hitting two parked
cars. Officers arrived and detained one suspect, a 32-year-old Seattle resident. Officers also located two vehicles that had significant damage – a brand new Bentley and a Rolls-Royce.
Two witnesses that were contact stated they saw the driver of the Honda ram the unoccupied parked cars multiple times. When interviewed, the suspect told Officers that he had not slept in about 3 days, and claimed that he may have had a panic attack. The owner of the Bentley dealership told Officers that the two cars that were struck would likely both be a total loss, and the estimated value of the two vehicle was over 500,000 dollars. The suspect was placed under arrest for malicious mischief in the 1st degree and later booked into jail.
A car theft suspect with incredibly bad timing was arrested Wednesday morning after swiping a brand new vehicle from a Bellevue dealership. This morning at 10:12 a.m., two Bellevue Police motorcycle Officers were in the parking lot of Michael’s Toyota in the Eastgate neighborhood investigating an unrelated crash that had occurred on Eastgate Way. An employee with the dealership approached the Officers and told them of a vehicle theft that had just occurred. The 26-year-old suspect had jumped into a brand new SUV that was parked in front of the dealership and drove off. The motorcycle Officers quickly located the suspect driving on 148th Avenue and called in additional Officers for assistance.
As the vehicle stopped in traffic on 148th Avenue near the intersection with Main Street, Officers attempted to take the suspect into custody. Officers attempted to break the windows of the vehicle with their batons and a window punch tool, without success. An Officer was able to place spike strips in front of the vehicle. As Officers were attempting to gain entry into the vehicle, the suspect drove forward into another vehicle, and then backed into a police motorcycle, knocking it over. The suspect then drove over the spike strips, flattening both front tires of the vehicle. The suspect stopped two blocks north of Main Street, where he was taken into custody by Officers. There were no injuries to Officers, motorists, or the suspect.

Enjoy these selected photos from last Friday’s media event with our newest K-9 – Týr (pronounced Teer). Original post






After over 500 hours of training, the Bellevue Police Department’s newest four-legged cop is ready to hit the streets. Týr, pronounced “Teer”, a 2-year-old Belgian Malinois that was born in Holland, was purchased by the Bellevue Police in November 2016 from the Von Liche Kennels in Denver, Indiana. He is the first Belgian Malinois to be used as a police K-9 in Bellevue. Týr’s name is derived from the Norse god known for law and justice. Týr’s handler, Officer Brad Knudtsen, who has worked for the Bellevue Police Department for 19 years and has been a K-9 handler for the past 8 years, was previously partnered with K-9 Roc, who retired in 2016 after seven years of faithful service to the Police Department. In order to be certified as a police K-9, Týr underwent an extensive training process to ensure that he had high drive and good sociability along with excellent tracking skills.
Týr was purchased with funds generously donated by the Bellevue Police Foundation. The Foundation also provided funds to purchase a ballistic vest for Týr. For more information about the Bellevue Police Foundation, go to www.bellevuepolicefoundation.org.
Members of the public and media are invited to come meet Týr this Friday at 11:30 a.m. in the main concourse of Bellevue City Hall outside of the city council chambers.

With temperatures expected to soar this week, the Bellevue Police Department issued an urgent reminder: dogs die in hot cars. The image is disturbing, but the message is important: it only takes minutes for pets left in hot vehicles to suffer a fatal heat related medical emergency. It goes without saying that you don’t leave your kids in a hot car, yet many people still believe that it’s ok to leave a dog in a car on a warm day if the windows are left open or they’re parked in the shade, but the truth is it’s a very dangerous situation for the dog, and every year Bellevue Police Officers respond to calls of distressed dogs in hot vehicles. Don’t leave your pet in your car during hot weather, even for a few minutes. If you see a child or animal that appears to be in distress in a vehicle, obtain the vehicle description and call 911 immediately.

Bellevue Police investigators made two additional arrests today as a large scale investigation into an organized ring of car prowlers kicks into high gear. Bellevue SWAT team members served a search warrant in the 9600 block of S. 252nd St. in Kent this afternoon, arresting a 28 year-old female and a 29 year-old male that was wanted for an unrelated robbery and assault case in King County.

Including the two arrests made today, 14 individuals have been arrested in “Operation Radcliffe”, which has been targeting car prowlers hitting area parks, and Bellevue Police expect to make additional arrests. The message from Bellevue Police is clear: The Bellevue Police Department takes these crimes seriously, and is committed to bringing those who choose to target this city to justice.
