Tacoma Police Department spokeswoman Loretta Cool told KIRO 7 a patrol vehicle traveling 10 mph ran over a person lying on the roadway. The victim was a 22-year-old man and a soldier from Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Officials there said on Monday he was scheduled to be discharged next month, served in Afghanistan and had received an Army commendation medal. The soldier was in critical condition. Cool said the investigation remains ongoing. “[The officer] was driving very slowly, and he stopped a couple of times to run plates and he was looking at the (patrol car's computer) screen. He was looking out in between the cars,” Cool said. Read More |
