TUKWILA, Wash. -- Just after a memorial service for slain Seattle police Officer Tim Brenton concluded Friday afternoon, officers shot and arrested a man described as a person of interest in his killing. Tukwila police spokesman Mike Murphy said investigators were following up leads on the murder at an apartment complex when the man flashed a gun and was shot by Seattle detectives. "Seattle PD detectives were out here, following up on a person of interest in the Officer Brenton homicide, and this person of interest ran, and was shot as he ran from the scene," Murphy said. The man was loaded onto a stretcher and rushed to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, but his condition was not known. "Medics have him, and he's being treated by them," Murphy said. "And the last I was with him, he was still alive."
