A suspect who led the authorities on Wednesday evening when persecution in Poulsbo was shot by the police after he supposedly swung a knife.

What you say:

According to the Poulsbo Police Department (PPD), one of his officials followed a vehicle that refused to stop near Viking Way and the Nordic Cove Lane. The MPs of the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office responded to Assist.

After the vehicle stopped, the officials approached the driver, who was supposedly armed with a large knife and “was a fatal threat to the officers and MPs,” said the PPD.

According to the PPD, no officers or MPs were injured.

All officials involved were transferred to administrative leave, while the Washington State Office of Independent investments leads the case.
