As a damaged helicopter hovered above the Yakima Air Terminal earlier this week, firefighters stacked pallets on the tarmac to ensure it could land safely. Details of the operation last Sunday were not released by the Yakima Fire Department until this morning. The King County Sheriff’s Office helicopter had been attempting to land searchers on Mount Adams, when its fuselage and one of its skids were badly damaged after striking a rock outcropping.

An 8-year-old girl was killed and five persons injured Wednesday when a suspect and two others fleeing from police in an SUV ran a stop sign at high speed and crashed into an off-duty deputy's pickup with three people inside, officials said. The violent force of the crash sent the suspect's SUV spiralling into a power pole and sent the pickup hurtling through the garage door of a house nearby.
