motorcycle, SUV crash

A 21-year-old SeaTac man died on May 10 from injuries he suffered in a motorcycle accident on International Boulevard May 8.

According to King County Sheriff’s Sgt. John Urquhart, the victim, who was not identified, was driving north on International Boulevard around 6 p.m. when a 1996 Isuzu Trooper turned in front at South 176th Street.

The second driver was not injured.

Urquhart said the accident is still under investigation, but speed on the part of the motorcycle driver appears to have been a factor.

Pair arrested at marina

Des Moines police officers responded to reports of an 18-year-old male yelling at pedestrians at the marina on May 6, around 6:25 p.m. in the 22700 block of Dock Avenue.

When officers arrived an employee at the marina said the man and his girlfriend were living on a boat in the guest moorage area. He wanted them escorted out of the marina.

Officers went to the boat, where neither the man nor the 20-year-old girlfriend were able to provide identification. However, they gave their names to the officers who ran a check and learned they both had outstanding warrants.

After arresting them, officers found a bag of crystal methamphetamine, weighing 3.3 grams, in the woman’s purse. She said she had taken meth 20 minutes before the officers got there.
