Officer Down, Kent PD, Washington

Police Officer Diego Moreno was struck and killed by a patrol car yesterday while deploying spike strips during a vehicle pursuit.

The pursuit started after officers began investigating the sounds of gunfire they heard in the area of a mobile home park. They attempted to stop a pickup truck leaving the area, but the driver refused to stop and lead officers on a pursuit along Route 516.

Officer Moreno was attempting to deploy spike strips at the intersection of Route 516 and Meeker Street when he was struck by one of the patrol cars involved in the pursuit. The patrol car then crashed into several parked vehicles.

The truck continued to flee but crashed a short distance away. One occupant in the vehicle was apprehended while two others fled and remain at large.

Officer Moreno had served with the Kent Police Department for eight years.

Godspeed my brother, we’ll see you on the other side.
