Good morning, Tacoma.

Pierce County deputies arrested two masked teens speeding in a stolen car in Parkland on Saturday at about 4 a.m.—the driver and a passenger were taken into juvenile detention when they fled after the stop, while a third teen remains at large.

Connor Jon Lacktorin, a 32-year-old registered sex offender from Renton, now faces ten felony charges for cutting utility wires that caused tens of thousands in damage and for stealing and reselling scrap copper to a Tacoma business—charges that follow investigations into similar thefts in Bellevue and Renton.

In the On the Sidelines podcast posted yesterday, Charles Hamaker, Ethan, and Dante said the Mariners need extra help at the trade deadline and previewed the Seahawks training camp starting today.

They also discussed NBA expansion news and noted that the Sounders face challenges after Jordan Morris hurt his shoulder and will need surgery — experts say the team will adjust — as the season moves ahead.
