A Honda Accord was stolen twice in one day in Yakima County, and police quickly arrested suspects both times. The car was stolen near Tieton area early in the morning on 15 June. A police detective in an unmarked car spotted it around 10:45 a.m. in Terrace Heights as it raced another Accord. The detective gave chase, losing one of the Hondas when the pair split up. He followed the other until the driver abandoned it. Then, the detective chased the driver on foot until he entered at a nearby residence. Police soon after arrested a 21-year-old Yakima man for investigation of possessing the stolen car. Meanwhile, another man got behind the wheel of the freshly abandoned Accord and stole it. That man, a 22-year-old from Sunnyside, also abandoned the vehicle a short distance away after realizing that he has been chased by police. The car was given back to its lucky owner at the evening. |
