Here are a few of the calls the Snoqualmie Police Department responded to in North Bend and Snoqualmie over the past couple of weeks. We have also reached out to the King County Sheriff’s Office to inquire if they would consider releasing a similar weekly police log. Currently they said their systems isn’t flexible enough to ‘zoom in’ on fairly small, geographic areas. KCSO is retiring that program this year, though, and hopes the new system will allow for it.
