Drone finds hit-and-run suspects after a Kennewick bar fight
Kennewick police officers were called to a fight at a Kennewick bar late Friday night.
But before long they were investigating a hit and run and using a drone to search for people reported running through backyards.
Calls were made to 911 about 11:20 p.m. Friday to report that people were fighting with the staff at The Pub, 7001 W. Clearwater Ave.
Kennewick officers arrived to investigate an alleged assault as a dark colored Subaru hatchback speeded off., according to police reports.
About three minutes later more officers headed toward The Pub saw a car that matched that description in the middle of the roundabout at West Fourth Avenue and Kellogg Street, with one door ajar and airbags deployed.
It had crashed into a metal sign, according to police reports.
People in the area told officers that a man and a woman had run from the Subaru. Another person reported someone going through backyards near the 400 block of South Jefferson Street.
A drone search of the area spotted two people hopping fences.
Police arrested both and booked Irma Lissette Guzman, 27, and Roel A. Guzman, 30, into the Benton County jail.
Irma Guzman was being held Saturday on suspicion of second-degree criminal trespass, hit and run and driving under the influence.
Roel Guzman was being held on suspicion of obstructing law enforcement and second-degree criminal trespass.
