E-Bikes Are Growing in Popularity. Know the Law Before You Ride.

E-bikes are a great way to commute, exercise, and explore our community, but it’s important to understand the rules that come with them.

Washington law recognizes three classes of e-bikes, each with different operating requirements and speed capabilities. No matter which class you ride:

✅ Wear a helmet
✅ Obey all traffic laws and signs
✅ Yield to pedestrians
✅ Ride predictably and responsibly

Remember, an e-bike must have functional pedals, a motor of 750 watts or less, and meet Washington’s legal classification requirements.

Take a moment to review the graphic below and learn which class your e-bike falls into. The more you know, the safer our roads and trails are for everyone.

Welcome to FTO.

Six hours into his first shift, Officer Trudeau found himself searching for an armed domestic violence suspect who had vanished into the brush.

Officers responded to a domestic violence call involving a physically disabled victim. Before officers arrived, the victim reported being strangled unconscious and threatened with a handgun. The suspect then fled on foot.

With limited suspect information and no direction of travel, K9 Cannon was called in.

The track led through dense brush and thick blackberry vines before Cannon’s behavior suddenly changed.

The suspect was close.

Moments later, Cannon located him completely concealed inside a blackberry bramble.

As officers worked to gain visual contact, the suspect refused commands and stated he was removing a bag from his person. Witnesses had previously reported seeing him place a handgun into that same bag before fleeing.

After repeated commands, the suspect ultimately complied and surrendered.

A search of the area where the suspect had been hiding revealed a handgun sitting on top of the bag along with five additional magazines.

The suspect was arrested for:

• Assault 2 DV – Strangulation
• Felony Harassment – Threats to Kill
• Interfering with DV Reporting
• Theft 3

Additional weapons charges remain under investigation.

Not a bad first day for Officer Trudeau.

Let’s give a big Lynnwood welcome to our newest officers!

On May 18, 2026, Lynnwood Police officers were dispatched to the parking lot of Ross following a report of a male unresponsive behind the wheel of a running vehicle.

Upon arrival, officers located a male in his 40s passed out in the driver’s seat of his truck. While investigating the scene, officers observed drug paraphernalia in plain view. The driver was subsequently arrested for Driving Under the Influence (DUI).

Following the arrest, the vehicle was impounded pending a search warrant. During the subsequent search, Officer Newman recovered:
• Over 160 fentanyl pills
• Over 50 grams of additional narcotics
• $3,000 in cash

The suspect has since been arrested and formally charged with Possession with Intent to Distribute.

This case is a perfect example of how much of an impact our community can have; thank you to the caller who took the time to report this, and excellent work by Officer Newman for her diligence in getting these drugs off our streets.
