Four suspects taken into custody for Richmond Beach area burglaries and thefts

Four suspects were taken into custody by the Shoreline Police Department late yesterday morning after alert Shoreline residents noticed suspicious activity in their neighborhood and called 911.

The suspects were caught in the act of committing a burglary in the area of NW 196 and 15 Ave NW in Shoreline’s Richmond Beach neighborhood.

Detectives are investigating possible links to at least two other area burglaries and numerous thefts.

Shoreline Police Chief Shawn Ledford was quick to give credit to Shoreline citizens for the arrests. 

“This is just another example of how important it is for our citizens to be vigilant to what is taking place in their own neighborhoods and to call us immediately when they observe behavior that just doesn’t look right.
"In this instance, it was the 911 call that gave our detectives exactly what they needed to file charges against a group of burglars that we have been focused on for the past several weeks. I couldn’t be more pleased with how well our community and our police department worked together to bring about these arrests.”

  1. Were their names Mayor Shari Winstead, Councilman Jesse Salomon, Councilman Will Hall, and Councilman Keith McGlashan? Because they just robbed Shoreline of its heart and soul by pushing through these massive rezones.

  2. Wow - wait for the follow up. In eastern Shoreline cops let the purp walk after 3 hours and then after getting a search warrant how many days latter opened his trunk to find weapons & vests. No one held no one charged. So don't get your hopes up that anything meaningfull will happen to these guys. (Or gals sorry PC)
