POULSBO, Wash. - Deputies arrested an 18-year-old man for allegedly assaulting law enforcement after a hit-and-run in Poulsbo, Washington on Tuesday night.
According to the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office, deputies were called around 8:30 p.m. to reports of a teenager rear-ending another car, then shouting slurs at the driver before speeding away. The incident occurred at the intersection of Central Valley Rd and Bucklin Rd.
Deputies spotted the suspect vehicle a short time later at Silverdale Waterfront Park. They approached the 18-year-old suspect, who refused a breathalyzer test, so he was taken to St. Michael Medical Center for a blood draw.
