episode Grandmother Trapped in Hot Tesla | Seattle News cover

Description

An elderly woman was trapped in a sweltering Tesla for over an hour on a scorching Tuesday night, temperatures inside soaring past 100 degrees — a heartbreaking case where a “pet-safe-mode” glitch left her stranded and in distress. Deputies rescued her after locating her granddaughter, who claimed the system was supposed to keep AC running, but it failed. The grandmother is recovering, and Kitsap County Adult Protective Services is now investigating — a sobering reminder that even advanced tech can fail when it matters most, and vulnerable people need our vigilance.

episode Wildfires Rage Across Washington State | Seattle News artwork

Wildfires Rage Across Washington State | Seattle News

Wildfires are exploding across Washington state as thunderstorms ignite new blazes, with the Kaiser Canyon Fire near Nespelem leading the charge under a Level Three evacuation alert. With a Red Flag Warning still in effect—hot, dry conditions expected through the weekend—the danger is escalating fast. Franklin County is grappling with four fires that’ve scorched 6,000 acres, threatening homes, farms, and a fish hatchery, while the Three Queens Fire in Kittitas County burns through rugged terrain, hampering firefighting efforts. Officials warn more dry weather is on the way, raising the risk of rapid spread and new outbreaks across the state.

Puffin Outbreak at Zoo | Seattle News

Puffins at Point Defiance Zoo are under quarantine after one tested positive for avian psittacosis — a bacterial infection — with more likely to follow. The exhibit is closed until vets and public health officials give the all-clear, and remaining puffins are on antibiotics while staff wear extra protective gear. Visitors who were there recently should watch for flu-like symptoms and see a doctor if they appear — though no human cases have been confirmed yet.

episode Crime Drops Citywide But Neighborhoods Struggle | Seattle News artwork

Crime Drops Citywide But Neighborhoods Struggle | Seattle News

Seattle’s crime numbers are dropping citywide—shootings down 20%, homicides down 35%—with June marking the first homicide-free month in over 50 years. But the picture gets murkier in neighborhoods like West Precinct, where violent crime and robberies are surging. Residents in Wallingford and near Alki Beach report escalating incidents, from wine bar break-ins to Fourth of July chaos. Chief Shon Barnes admits the data doesn’t reflect the full story, redirecting specialized units to investigations and praising the city’s camera network for tracking crime. The mayor’s office is pausing expansion of the network for a privacy and effectiveness review with NYU, a move Chief Barnes supports. Meanwhile, 87 new officers have joined the force, and retention is improving—fueling the department’s push to keep building community trust and safety.
