The truck was described by witnesses as either white or red with a white canopy. It was spotted northbound on 52nd Avenue W. There was damage to the right front or the right front side of vehicle, Jorgensen said.

Knife-wielding carnival worker arrested: Police arrested a 32-year-old-man described as a transient carnival worker from Portland Saturday evening, alleging that he tried to stab an officer with a box knife.

The man arrived in Sultan as part of a carnival crew and went into a tavern where he allegedly told patrons that he had committed three murders in Oregon, according to a police statement.

One of the patrons notified police, but the man had left the tavern and was walking back toward the carnival staging area.

A Sultan police officer stopped the man and as he was talking with him, the man pulled out the box knife from his pocket, flicked it open and brandished it toward the officer.

The officer knocked the knife to the ground and took the man into custody.

Oregon law enforcement officials have been notified.

According to a state patrol report, James DeRose, 24, of Everett was southbound when he attempted to make a left turn. His car stuck a Honda driven by Jackson Chatfield, 47, of Everett.

A nursing supervisor said Chatfield was treated and released from the Everett hospital.

Soggy canoeist OK: A woman who left Seattle’s Shilshole marina early Thursday morning bound for Bellingham in a canoe was found south of Edmonds Friday evening after spending a night on a secluded beach.

A 58-year-old Seattle woman who was traveling with her 7-year-old grandson was found by Edmonds Police officers about one-half mile north of Point Wells, below the Rosary Heights slide area of Woodway.

Edmonds police said the woman, who was not identified, had been forced ashore Thursday morning and had to spend the night on the beach. All of her and her grandson’s belongings had become saturated, making continued travel impossible.

Officers transported the stranded boaters, their canoe and their belongs to the Edmonds Marina, where they were reunited with family members Friday evening.
