“New clues in the search for officer’s killer”
SNIPPET: “The vehicle in the video matches the vehicle described by surviving Student Officer Brett Sweeney.
The vehicle is described as acting strangely on the video. Police are keeping the exact description close the vest at this time. Previously they had said they believed the car was a light colored small import like a Toyota.
In addition they do believe the vehicle was struck by at least one of Officer Sweeney’s rounds and should have some damage.
Additionally they have stated that they found a backpack in downtown Seattle that had officer’s names and when they went and on and off shift. This could be a big break as it may yield DNA of a potential suspect(s).”
NOTE: Video included.
