I'm still trying to get caught up from yesterday and wanted to post some links to news items in yesterday's paper in case you missed them. Police say a theft ring has been targeting vacant homes for sale in Spokane Valley and stealing kitchen appliances. Crime Stoppers is offering a reward for anyone who provides information that results in arrests. Call (800) 222-TIPS or click here. Reporter Meghann Cuniff has more details on her Sirens & Gavels blog.

Meghann also had a story on Terence M. Washington, who police say is suspected of drugging a woman and impersonating a police officer. Police are searching for more women who may have been drugged by Washington. Anyone who had contact with him should call Det. Kirk Keyser at (509) 477-3786. There's also a mug shot of Washington here.
