The man then dragged the woman off the street and placed her into the vehicle with the intent to drive away.<\/p>\n<p>The witness attempted to confront the driver, who refused to stop, so the witness fired two bullets into the vehicle&rsquo;s tires to disable it, but the man drove off with the woman in the car.<\/p>\n<p>Officers flooded the area to search for the suspect vehicle and the woman. At about 4 a.m., two Kent officers located the suspect about a mile from the incident on foot <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/52QsjA2DNu6DZYgi7\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">in the area of Southeast 264th Street and 104th Avenue Southeast,<\/a> according to police. Officers took him into custody without incident. He told officers the woman was his girlfriend.<\/p>\n<p>Police found the suspect&rsquo;s vehicle, with the woman inside, a few minutes later and a short distance from where they located the suspect. Officers began CPR and other life-saving measures, but the woman did not survive.<\/p>\n<p>The King County Medical Examiner&rsquo;s Office has not yet released the name of the woman.<\/p>\n<p>Detectives anticipate turning the case over soon to the King County Prosecuting Attorney&rsquo;s Office to file charges against the Renton man.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dispute early Thursday morning between Renton couple on East Hill street <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":212,"featured_media":47019,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,4],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-47018","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47018"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/212"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47018"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47018\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/47019"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47018"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47018"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47018"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=47018"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
