Kent Police arrested a man for investigation of a Seattle shooting and multiple carjackings.<\/p>\n

Officers responded at about 1:51 p.m. Monday, Nov. 7 to the 6400 block of South 212th Street <\/a>regarding a Seattle Police request to locate a stolen vehicle, according to Kent Police.<\/p>\n

The man had reportedly been involved in a shooting and carjacking in Seattle just prior to 1 p.m. in the 2300 block of Eastlake Avenue East, according to the Seattle Police Blotter. The vehicle owner had been shot in the leg.<\/p>\n

Kent officers located the vehicle at a business in the 6400 block of South 212th Street and immediately set up a perimeter around the area. Officers laid down multiple sets of spike strips to slow down the vehicle in the event it attempted to leave the parking lot.<\/p>\n

The suspect did flee, driving on deflated tires, according to Kent Police. He was taken into custody without incident following a short pursuit that ended in Renton. The man was reportedly in possession of a stolen firearm when arrested.<\/p>\n

Bellevue Police also suspect the man in a carjacking at gunpoint earlier Monday. Kent Police had a similar carjacking at about 11:45 a.m. on the East Hill. Detectives are trying to determine if that carjacking is related to the incidents in Seattle and Bellevue.<\/p>\n

Seattle Police will take custody of the man, according to Kent Police. An age and hometown for the man has not been released.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
