~ A high-speed hit and run incident in downtown Spokane on May 20th, 2024 has left two people injured and one man behind bars. According to the Spokane Police Department, the incident occurred just after 6pm at the intersection of Main and Washington.

Upon receiving a report of a vehicle collision, officers quickly responded to the scene. It was reported that two vehicles were involved in the crash and one had rolled over after impact. The driver of the at-fault vehicle attempted to flee the scene but was stopped by passers-by and restrained until law enforcement arrived.

Interestingly, it was later discovered that the citizens who detained the fleeing male were off-duty police officers from another jurisdiction. These officers, from the Pasco Police Department, were in Spokane for the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs Conference (WASPC).
