Check out a scary incident that occurred last month in April when a legal gun owner had arranged to sell his AR-15 rifle in a parking lot located at the 15800 block of Pacific Ave. S. The victim was robbed at gunpoint, and the suspects took off in a getaway car.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to witnesses who captured the license plate and description of the vehicle, deputies were able to determine the getaway car was associated with known juveniles with prior armed robbery and unlawful possession of firearms convictions. The getaway van was located a couple of hours later in the Sunrise area of Puyallup.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two suspects fled from the vehicle while the other two remained inside the van, compliant. Three of the suspects were taken into custody, while the fourth was later found using K9 Griff from the Puyallup Police Department.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you, Puyallup Police Department K9 Griff and his handler for your assistance, and great job to the deputies who captured the suspects and brought this case to safe ending.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
