UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. (AP) — Residents of University Place are mourning the death of an assistant principal killed in a motorcycle crash.
Bryan Beale was assistant principal at Drum Intermediate School. The News Tribune reports that the 37-year-old was killed Saturday when a sport-utility vehicle ran a red light and collided with his motorcycle in Tacoma.
University Place School District Superintendent Patti Banks says Beale was a talented and dedicated administrator who touched the lives of hundreds of students and families.
Beale also played in the Tacoma Concert Band and served on its board of directors.
