TUKWILA, Wash. — The Tukwila Police Department says that a DUI suspect with a blood alcohol level double the legal limit was arrested after running from police.

After that, a chase began with the officer eventually catching up to the driver at Tukwila International Blvd near S. 144th St.
The driver didn’t stop, so the officer was forced to use a PIT maneuver.
The driver was detained without incident and booked in the Tukwila Justice Center.

They were booked into jail on DUI and eluding charges.
