Washington State Patrol Aviation Helps Tri-Cities Night Patrols

The police in Tri-Cities recently were working with the Washington State Patrol Aviation Unit during night patrols last weekend looking for criminals in the sky like Batman. I wrote a story last week after a warning by the Washington State Patrol saying they "will have an airplane in the sky over Tri-Cities looking for aggressive, reckless drivers" during night patrols. I guess these guys didn't get the message and tried to run from the police anyway. Don't you know you can't get away from Batman?

Read the details from all 3 suspect pursuits and watch the complete released video with their Instagram link below.
