MILL CREEK, Wash. — Two men were arrested on March 26 after FLOCK license plate reading cameras alerted police to a car that was reported stolen, according to the Mill Creek Police Department.

Officers responded near 132nd Avenue Southeast and 16th Avenue Southeast and found the stolen car in a parking lot of a Fred Meyer grocery store.

Authorities say the driver was arrested for possession of a stolen vehicle and a passenger was taken into custody after officers found a short-barreled shotgun hidden in his waistband.
