Reports of a burglary and a shooting sent deputies with the King County Sheriff’s Office (KCSO) on a police chase from Sammamish to Renton.

Just before 3:30 a.m. Friday, KCSO deputies responded to a call about a vehicle prowl and attempted theft in Sammamish. Reports also mentioned shots were fired from someone in a Dodge Durango along 2nd Place in Sammamish.

By 6:45 a.m., KCSO confirmed that three suspects had been arrested and detained in Renton. No one was injured in the police pursuit.
