Spokane County Sheriff’s Sergeant Killed in the Line of Duty

It is with great sadness and the heaviest of hearts that the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office confirms the line-of-duty loss of Spokane County Sheriff’s Office Sergeant Kenneth Salas, a member of our agency and law enforcement family.

On August 9, 2025, at approximately 7:40 am, Spokane County Sheriff’s Office Sergeant Salas (59) was tragically killed when he was struck by a motorist while assisting with a large traffic hazard on eastbound I-90 near the Four Lakes exit.
Sergeant Kenneth Salas began his 34-year law enforcement career as a Spokane County Corrections Officer before joining the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office as a Patrol Deputy. He served in many different assignments, including Patrol, School Resource Deputy, Traffic Unit, and the Emergency Operations Team.

In 2004, he earned the rank of Detective/Corporal, and in 2009, he was promoted to the rank of Sergeant, where he was assigned as the Downtown Dayshift Patrol Sergeant Supervisor.

He is survived by his wife and extended family members, who ask you to respect their privacy as they grieve this devastating loss.

Sergeant Salas proudly served the Citizens of Spokane County for over three decades. He was not only a member of the Sheriff’s Office, he was also a valued and cherished member of our law enforcement family.

In addition to his law enforcement career, Sergeant Salas also served our Country for over two decades in the United States Air Force, retiring as a Technical Sergeant with the Washington State Air National Guard.

Rest In Peace, Hero 💙🖤

A man, with previous history and convictions of the same behavior, tried to claim he was asleep while committing the crime. Seriously?..

How many homes have been rebuilt in Lahaina 2 years after the fire?

According to the Maui Recovers Website:
- 425 residential permits have been issued.
- 270 homes are currently under construction.
- 48 homes have completed construction

And another 185 residential permits are currently being processed. We still have a long way to go but it’s good to see so many homes being built in town.
