Burglary Suspect Arrested After Wading Yakima River
Arrested: Torres, Jarrod J. 33 year of age male, Richland resident
The Richland Police Department has been investigating several burglaries for the past two weeks. Torres had been linked as a suspect and it was learned that he had warrants out for his arrest. In addition, a witness had seen Torres armed with a handgun within the past week.
On December 17, 2010 probable cause was developed to substantiate a search warrant at the apartment where Torres has been staying. Due to the presence of two young children in the residence and the fact that Torres had access to weapons and had been violent in the past, assistance was requested from members of the Tri-City Regional SWAT team.
RPD’s Proactive Anti-Crime (PAC) team was on scene providing surveillance and observed the suspect leave his apartment. As he was walking away from the complex the PAC team members identified themselves and ordered Torres to the ground. Instead of complying with their orders he ran on foot to Duportail St. He then ran towards a heavily wooded area near the Yakima River.
Additional police units were on the way to the area and arrived to assist in the search for Torres. He was hiding in the brush near the river. As officers approached, Torres jumped up and ran into the Yakima. Wading into the river until the water was waist deep, he finally decided that a return to the bank was a better choice. Torres was taken into custody without further incident. Due to his exposure to the cold water, his medical condition was checked by paramedics from the Richland Fire Department.
Torres was booked into the Benton County Jail on a felony Department of Corrections warrant and two misdemeanor warrants from Chelan County. Additional charges of Burglary, Felon in Possession of a Firearm, Felony Violation of a Restraining Order, and Resisting Arrest will be forwarded to the prosecutor’s office for review.
For further information, contact Cpt. Mike Cobb, 509-942-7362

Synopsis:
On 12-12-2010 at about 02:30 a.m., a security officer observed Jancar, Hadley, and the juvenile male prowling vehicles in the 200 block of Gage Blvd. The security officer called 911 and provided a description and direction of travel on the trio. Officers attempted to make contact and all three suspects fled on foot, which led to a brief foot pursuit where two of the three males were apprehended. The third male escaped.
