Kittitas County, WA - 03/23/2019 - Kittitas Police Officer Benito “Kellyn” Chavez is scheduled to be released from Harborview Medical Center in Seattle at around 3:00 P.M. today.
There will be a brief opportunity for photos and possibly a quick message from Officer Chavez or family before he is transported back to Kittitas County by an escorted Kittitas Valley Fire and Rescue ambulance. Media are asked to stage on the 9th Ave sidewalk at the Harborview Medical Center campus, just north of the Seattle Fire Department station bays. The family asks for privacy to allow Officer Chavez to heal. We will continue to update his status when available.
