~ On the night of 5/14/23, two Spokane Police Department (SPD) officers were patrolling the area near a downtown establishment when they noticed security making their way through a large group of people on the bar's patio. Upon further investigation, the officers observed a juvenile male pulling a handgun out of his waistband. The suspect then fled on foot with two other males, but was eventually detained by police.
The juvenile had two handguns in his possession, one of which was loaded and reported stolen. The establishment was full to capacity with people lined along the patio awaiting entry.

According to Julie Humphreys, Public Safety Communication Manager for SPD, "The quick action of the officers in the arrest of the male very well could have prevented a tragic situation." She also reminded everyone to be extra diligent when out drinking and partying/gathering – report suspicious activity to authorities and always have a designated driver.
The juvenile male was arrested and taken to the Spokane County Juvenile Detention Center where he was charged with Obstruction of a Law Enforcement Officer, Possession of a Stolen Firearm, and Unlawful Possession of a Firearm 2nd Degree.
SPD staffs bar patrols on Friday and Saturday nights in downtown Spokane to help keep the area safe for all people. Officers are visible on foot and in patrol cars as summer approaches and establishments get busier.
