Earlier this month, officers responded to a robbery at a local department store. After being confronted by store employees, the suspect refused to return the stolen items and threatened them with pepper spray before fleeing the scene.

Thanks to the swift actions of our officers, the suspect was located attempting to flee on a bicycle. Despite his efforts to escape, officers successfully detained him. He was booked into Pierce County Jail on robbery charges.
