OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
On March 24, 2021, officers from the Yakima Police Department and Yakima County Sheriff's Office responded to a report of an assault at a Taco Bell around 5:10 p.m. A 22-year-old woman informed police that her 41-year-old former boyfriend had assaulted her and stolen her car. She reported that he had shown up at her workplace, requested a ride, and after she agreed, he assaulted her, placed her hands in zip ties, and forced her to pull into a parking lot. She managed to escape and seek help at a nearby Taco Bell. Shortly after, officers located the stolen vehicle, leading to a pursuit. A Yakima County Sheriff's Deputy attempted to stop the vehicle by ramming it, but the chase continued until the suspect eventually stopped. The man then pulled out a gun and fatally shot himself.
