State wildlife cameras near North Bend stolen

NORTH BEND — Nine wildlife cameras used to track elk near North Bend have been stolen.

The Transportation Department was using the cameras in a project to prevent elk collisions on Interstate 90.

KOMO reports workers noticed the cameras worth $7,000 were gone Nov. 10. Crews removed nine other remaining cameras as a precaution.

One of the cameras took a picture of a possible suspect, a man with a bandanna over his face.
