In case you missed them, here are some of the top stories from the week:
A man fatally shot by a newspaper carrier April 17 at the Waterfront Vancouver carried a hunting knife, police say, but court records do not indicate that he produced the weapon before he was shot.
The man, identified as 29-year-old Kin K. Bossy, had been attempting to steal the carrier’s car when he was shot multiple times, according to a search warrant affidavit filed Tuesday in Clark County District Court.
A Kelso man who’s barred from ilani allegedly made off with $12,500 in chips after breaking into the casino Tuesday morning, disguised in a gray wig and construction vest.
The alleged thief, identified by police as Lucas Daniel Levi Bunn, didn’t make it far, however. He was found near a gas station on the other side of Interstate 5, where he was shocked by a stun gun and arrested, according to court records.
It’s almost checkout time for the former Red Lion Hotel Vancouver at the Quay.
The red-trimmed riverside building with its massive rooftop sign stands just west of the Interstate 5 Bridge and has been one of downtown Vancouver’s most prominent visual landmarks for decades. A year from now, it will be gone.
The investigation into the shooting of Jenoah Donald, a Black motorist killed by a Clark County deputy, will be examined by a statewide panel of prosecutors, in a new move to create independence in the review process.
The panel was created by the Washington Association of Prosecuting Attorneys to help assess whether the deputy’s actions were legally justified. Donald’s case will be the first reviewed under the new model. The panel includes the elected prosecutors from Lewis, Yakima, Pend Oreille, Snohomish and Pierce counties.
With Clark County’s COVID-19 activity rising for the sixth consecutive week and approaching levels not seen since mid-February, will schools scale back their newly implemented expanded in-person instruction?
Highly unlikely.
