East Wenatchee woman fled police multiple times before arrest

Written by: Chris Foreman, Commander, CRDTF
Published: 21 October 2022

CRDTF logoOn October 19th, 2022 Columbia River Drug Task Force Detectives located Danielle Reyes, a 28-year-old resident of East Wenatchee, while she was driving a motor vehicle in Wenatchee. Reyes had numerous misdemeanor warrants for her arrest, and had been involved in eluding incidents with patrol officers in both Wenatchee and East Wenatchee in the recent past.

CRDTF Detectives coordinated with Wenatchee Police Officers to stop Reyes, but she fled from the uniformed police officers in marked patrol vehicles two different times in the course of a few minutes. Reyes was located again in East Wenatchee, and an East Wenatchee Officer initiated a traffic stop from which, Reyes fled again. The East Wenatchee Officer attempted a Pursuit Intervention Technique (P.I.T.) maneuver to prevent Reyes from fleeing the traffic stop. Reyes slammed on the brakes, and put the vehicle in reverse slamming into the front of a CRDTF vehicle, causing the air bags to deploy and causing extensive damage to both vehicles. Reyes resisted arrest and attempted to drive away, while she was being taken into custody.

The CRDTF Detective was driven to Central Washington Hospital as a precautionary measure. The CRDTF Detective has been discharged from CWH with minor injuries.

Initial charges for Reyes include Assault 2nd degree, 2 counts of Felony Eluding, Resisting Arrest, and Driving Under the Influence. The Wenatchee Police Department is handling the investigation on the criminal charges stemming from the events today.

The Washington State Patrol is investigating the collision.

CRDTF Detectives as well as Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Deputies and East Wenatchee Police Officers surrounded the residence where Dominguez was last seen.

Youth can ride transit for free in most of Washington

Written by: Brian Lagerberg, WSDOT Public Transportation Division
Published: 15 October 2022

wsdot logo greenNearly all transit agencies submit zero-fare policies for riders 18 and under

OLYMPIA – Transit agencies across Washington reached a major milestone in October, delivering policies that make riding transit free for people 18 and under. With the policies, the transit agencies secured access to funding from the state’s Transit Support Grant.

The Transit Support Grant, part of the Legislature’s landmark 16-year, $17 billion Move Ahead Washington transportation funding package, provides much-needed financial support to transit agencies statewide. Funding from the grant allows transit agencies to make high-priority investments, like new routes and vehicles to get people where they need to be, and new bus stops and stations to make sure people feel safe and comfortable while they wait for a ride.

“With the Transit Support Grant, Washington has a win-win scenario for access,” said WSDOT Public Transportation Division director, Brian Lagerberg. “This funding allows transit agencies to build on their great service for everyone in Washington. Even better, the grant prioritizes free rides for everyone 18 and under.”

To receive a Transit Support Grant, transit agencies must adopt zero-fare policies for riders 18 years and under. Of the 31 transit agencies eligible for the grant, 30 submitted policies. Those agencies are now able to receive part of the available $33.6 million in Transit Support Grant funding. Selah Transit, which didn’t submit a policy, plans to do so in order to become eligible to receive funding in 2025. Additionally, Sound Transit is not eligible for the Transit Support Grant but will still implement a zero-fare policy for riders 18 and under.  

People 18 years and younger make up more than 20 percent of Washington’s total population. By making transit free for youth, the Transit Support Grant improves access for a large number Washingtonians and helps lower family transportation costs, which on average make up 16 percent of all household expenses. This percentage tends to be higher for families with lower incomes.

The Transit Support Grant is the first of the new public transportation grant programs WSDOT is rolling out under the Move Ahead Washington transportation funding package. The package’s public transportation investments total more than $3 billion over 16 years and include increased funding for new and existing programs, including the new Tribal Transit Mobility Grant and State Bus & Bus Facility Grant.

Montana man rescued after being trapped under boulder

Written by: Sgt. Jason Reinfeld, CCSO
Published: 14 October 2022

sheriffSheriff Brian Burnett reports on Monday October 10th, 2022, Ben Delahunty, a 28 year old Montana man, was rescued from the Lake Viviane area south of Leavenworth. His hiking partner called RiverCom dispatch at approximately 9:30 am to report his friend was trapped under a large boulder in the area of Lake Viviane. A CCSO Search and Rescue coordinator was able to communicate with him by phone. He said his friend’s wrist was pinned by the boulder and it was also across his legs. They were unable to move the boulder as it was approximately the size of a refrigerator.

The Location of the Mr. Delahunty was several hours hike from the trailhead and the scenario presented a unique challenge of getting equipment capable of moving a boulder as well as rescuers on scene in a timely manner. A call was made to State Emergency Management to request a hoist capable helicopter. Local fire agencies were also contacted for equipment to move the boulder.

The Wenatchee Valley Department has air bladders capable of lifting the boulder and they could be inflated with air cylinders. They also offered the use of their helicopter 1MR to assist in getting rescuers and equipment to the scene. Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office Helicopter Rescue Team also responded on SnoHawk10, a hoist capable helicopter. SnoHawk10 was able to insert the first paramedics via hoist to the patient at approximately 12:20. 1MR began shuttling rescuers and equipment to the scene while SnoHawk10 was inserting the medics. Rescuers from Cascade Ambulance, Chelan County Mountain Rescue, Wenatchee Valley Fire Department, and Snohomish County Helicopter Rescue Team were all inserted to complete the rescue. Additional equipment was provided by Chelan County Fire District 3.

The crews that were inserted immediately found this rescue had additional challenges. Mr. Delahunty’s location was in an area that needed ropes to safely access and there was a risk of a fall while working on the boulder. Using the air bladders, they were able to free him from the boulder at approximately 2:50 pm.

By the time Mr. Delahunty was freed from the boulder, winds had picked making the first attempt to hoist him from his position and an attempt to pick him up from a nearby landing zone unsuccessful. Additional volunteers from Chelan County Mountain Rescue responded on the ground in case they had to bring him out in a wheeled litter. At 4:45 pm there was enough of a break in the weather to allow Snohomish County to attempt another hoist operation. They were successful and transported Mr. Delahunty to Central Washington Hospital. He has significant injuries to his leg but is expected to recover.

The rescuers on scene hiked out over the next several hours making it to the trailhead at approximately 11:00 pm.

This rescue presented challenges not seen very often and could not have been accomplished without the partnerships established with local and out-of-area agencies.

Buckner Orchard late harvest needs pickers!

Written by: Herb Sargo
Published: 12 October 2022

buckner logoYOUR HELP IS NEEDED

Harvest Fest has come and gone and the trees at the Buckner Orchard are still loaded with an overabundance of our historic Common Delicious and Rome Beauties.

As many of you know, it has been a long, late season everywhere for fruit ripening and harvesting, including at the Orchard. Persistent Harvest Fest participants were able to find near-ripe fruit to pick and press, but the majority of trees are still slowly beginning to bear truly ripe fruit.

Ripening is a function of starches changing to sugar, a change brought on by cooler weather. As nice as the weather has been here in the Valley, it just hasn't been cool enough, soon enough, for our apples to ripen in a timely fashion. As a result, the trees slowly continue to believe they have all the time in the world!

The good news is cooler weather is forecast and on the way, along with an abundance of apples much more suited for picking and pressing and all the good things we do with them.

BOTTOM LINE
We need you to pick, pick, pick and press, press, press as if your entire food supply for the winter was dependent upon it!

NOTABLE
1. We have a great supply of free boxes of all sizes for your use. Take what you need, then one more to help move the harvest along. You won't regret it!

2. The cider press will remain out and available until all the apples are gone, or mid-November, which ever comes first. (Sadly, we are down to a single press. The other, the older of the two, has a stripped screw, the essential part used for actually pressing the apple pulp. The part is now on its way to be rebuilt. Does anyone have one to loan or donate? Let us know.)

3. Only the press and cleaning materials are available, so bring what you need for making cider. You know the drill.

4. Please, please, please remember to close all gates and keep the pressing area clean.

Q. So, what happens to the unpicked apples?
A. The apples are stripped from the trees, then picked up and hauled away, fed to pigs, used for compost, or just dumped somewhere appropriate. This is very time consuming.

WHY? This is a task necessitated by both rodents and bears. Mice are surprisingly destructive of the wintering trees; remember this is an organic orchard, free of pesticides and the like. Additionally, the electric bear fence must come down before snow fall, making the apples easy picking for our furry friends, and their doing so is very destructive of the trees.

On the other hand, your picking is far gentler and more appropriate, so help us out if you can!
