EVERETT — Everett police said they are looking for two men they believe stole a car at gunpoint Friday afternoon.
The robbery took place around 3:30 p.m. in the 800 block of Pecks Drive, Everett police Sgt Jerry Strieck said.
One man had a long gun or shotgun and the other said he had a gun, Strieck said.
They allegedly stole a 2001 black Suzuki Vitara with Washington license plate 082-LXT and a dealer plate, 2896.
The men are considered armed and dangerous. They were described as white, tall, in their mid-teens to early 20s. They were wearing black hooded sweatshirts and blue jeans. Bandanas covered their heads and faces, Strieck said.
If anyone sees the men, call 911. Do not approach the men, he said.
Tulalip: Tribal member sentence for theft
A Tulalip tribal member was scolded by a federal judge Friday when he was sentenced to three months in a federal prison for theft of $5,400 worth of gaming chips from the Tulalip Casino.
Donald C. Hatch III, 46, a former casino employee, will have to spend an additional three months on electronic home monitoring, and will be under federal supervision for three years.
He pleaded guilty to theft by a employee of a gaming establishment on Indian lands.
U.S. District Judge Ricardo Martinez told Hatch that he “violated the trust of his people” and, “in effect you stole from every single person in your community,” people who “desperately needed help.”
The government accused Hatch of having family and friends cash the chips for him. Martinez told the defendant he was particularly concerned that Hatch “dragged family members into this scheme.”
Lynnwood: Missing girl, 14, calls family
A 14-year-old Lynnwood girl who was feared missing called her mom Friday and said she is safe and OK, police said.
Lynnwood Police believed Ricki Sterzick may have been in danger, spokeswoman Shannon Sessions said.
Until Friday, the girl’s family hadn’t heard from her since Jan. 8. The girl’s mother told police Ricki had run away in the past and has been known to be involved in high-risk activities, Sessions said.
Ricki told her mother Friday she has no plans to return home, Sessions said.
The girl has an arrest warrant for failing to comply with probation conditions.
