Police officer murder: Seattle Police media briefing

November 7, 2009 at 11:35 am | In Crime, West Seattle news | Comments Off

One day after both the memorial for murdered Seattle Police Officer Tim Brenton and the shooting of a man who investigators say they believe is linked to the case, SPD is planning a media briefing at any moment. KING5 is working on streaming it live – watch this link. 11:57 AM UPDATE: They weren’t able to make that work. But reporters at the briefing are tweeting — including KING’s Chris Daniels (twitter.com/chrisdaniels5). We’ll publish whatever official news release emerges from this in addition to links to coverage. And the Times has some of the details that are emerging – including what was found in the suspect’s apartment – a “cache of weapons … and bomb-making materials.” KING’s Daniels reports that police are saying the suspect is also linked to last month’s firebombing of police vehicles, and they are describing him as a “lone domestic terrorist.” 12:42 PM: Many additional details in the Times story now – see it here. 1:23 PM: Police have now published their statement on where things stand – see it here. They say they’re asking the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office to file charges.
