the
case. The first case is
in the news at 11 starts
right now. This is box 13
news at 11. Tonight at 11
police arrest a 15 year old
accused of murdering a pot
shop clerk during a violent
crime spree. We know about
the arrest and the search
for the second suspect.
Alaska Airlines expected to
cancel more flights tomorrow
and the police are still
investigating the case.
The police are still
investigating the case and
they're trying to fix the
issue and 70 degrees rain,
hail, even snow. We've seen
it all over the last few
days, and we're tracking
what's in store for the rest
of the week. In our
neighborhoods and arrest
today for a murder committed
during a pot shop robbery in
Tacoma. Investigators have
one of the teenagers in
custody. Another still at
large night, though, and this
robbery that police say
was a murder. The police are
investigating the case.
We'll have more on that in
just a moment. David Rose
Police have been looking for
the two teenagers. They say
killed a worker at a Tacoma
marijuana store last month.
Tonight we're learning a lot
more about what's looking
more like a robbery spree
with one suspect still on the
loose. FOX 13's AJ Jan.
Nervils in Tacoma with the
information on how police
found the one suspect
arrested and what they know
about the search for the
second one. I'm standing
outside the Tacoma Police
Department, but it was
actually Seattle police who
were looking for the two
suspects. The police say the
two suspects were in the
same room. The police say is
both Jones and Hatfield are
accused of several violent
incidents throughout Western
Washington. The big question
is. Some of these have been
prevented. The doors are
finally back open employees
at World of We tell me Monday
is the first day they
welcomed customers back
inside the shop after the
tragic loss of one of their
employees. On Saturday, March
19th, Jordan Brown died, shot
and killed while doing his
job. The police say the
suspect was in the shop
yesterday. The police say
the suspect was in the shop
and made him stand out.
Police say Marshawn Jones and
Montreal Hatfield busted into
the shop that Saturday night
to rob it. Ended up shooting
and killing Brown, but
officials say this shooting
may have been prevented on
February 22nd. Investigators
say Jones and Hatfield robbed
a pawn shop in federal way.
Court documents say the
suspects pointed guns at
employees and customers. Even
firing a bullet into the wall
of the shop. The police say
the suspect was in the shop
yesterday morning. Police say
the suspect was on the day with
tens of thousands of dollars
before police caught them. On
Jones and Hatfield's first
appearance on February 24th.
King County prosecutors
requested the teen suspects
stay in custody. However,
according to court documents,
Jones and Hatfield were
released on house arrest by
Judge Averill Roth Rock. The
attorney's office say they
found out Jones and Hatfield
cut off their ankle bracelets
and put them in a box. The
suspect was found dead on
Wednesday. Police say the
suspect was found dead in
Brown during the Tacoma Pot
shop robbery. For the last few
weeks, the images of these
suspects have been broadcast
throughout the region as law
enforcement work to find the
teens. Yet last week on
Wednesday, Seattle police say
the suspects robbed another
spot, this time a jewelry
store in Seattle. That
robbery is where these
pictures come from. However,
the business asked us not to
name them out of fear they
would be targeted, according
to the police. The suspect
was found dead on Tuesday
morning, and the police say
they found him in Pierce and
King County Monday night.
Hatfield is also in Pierce
County. Detectives are
investigating a homicide in
universally placed just before
four o'clock West Pierce Fire
and Rescue responded to
reports of an unresponsive
person in a vehicle located in
the 1800 block of Day Island
Boulevard. Detectives are at
the scene and looking for
witnesses. The concrete
construction projects are
delayed. Hundreds of jobs have
been lost and concrete workers
still don't have a contract
after five months of a strike.
A number of union workers are
back on the job. Plant
operators say it will take time
to bring production back to
pre strike levels. And while
major infrastructure projects
can restart Seattle Mayor
Bruce Harrell says that's too
soon to know if repairs can
happen quickly enough to hit
the target reopening for the
West Seattle Bridge. People in
West Seattle are tempering
their expectations. The fact
that it's a possibility is at
least encouraging. But I, uh,
I'm not holding my breath.
Union members tell us they're
upset that some companies
aren't bringing workers back
immediately. A spokesperson
for several operators says
that will take time.
Meantime, Alaska Airlines says
it will cut flights because of
staffing issues. The carrier
canceled 20 flights today is
expected to cancel dozens more
this week. Both Alaska and Jet
Blue announcing they would
reduce flights beginning next
month through the rest of the
summer because of a worker
shortage. Alaska says in the
meantime, the carrier will
catch up on pilot training so
they don't run into this issue
again. Jet Blue is expecting
to reduce its flights by 8 to
10% in the summer season.
More snow in the passes. This
is a Snoqualmie pass where
crews have been prepping for
heavy snowfall. The maintenance
supervisor tells FOX 13 that
falling temps late tonight
could make for slick
conditions. He says it's
really critical that people
follow recommendations. The
vast majority of our closures
are simply because people are
not following the traction
requirements and they're
ill-prepared and that's what
really causes the vast majority
of our closures up here on
Snoqualmie Pass. At last
checked, traction tires are
advised and oversized vehicles
are prohibited in both
directions. All right, let's
check in with our chief
meteorologist Lisa Villegas and
find out what's going to happen
overnight, especially for
people that have to travel.
Yeah, so for those across the
passes, we have to watch out
for more of that accumulation.
So just check in on those road
conditions because they're
going to change. In fact,
here's what we're seeing right
now when it comes to those
past conditions. A little foggy
by the way, temperatures well
below freezing and we're seeing
more of that accumulation in
the form of snow. Yes, just
because of those temperatures,
right? And that's going to
continue to be the case
throughout the day tomorrow.
So I do want to fast forward
when it comes to the passes.
We're looking at around at
least three to eight inches of
snow, but we're going to see
some of that snow again.
We're going to see some of that
snow again. We're going to have
more accumulation here for the
next 24 hours. That's going to
be significant. Also expecting
more of that accumulation
across parts of the Olympics
snow level. Very, very low
tonight down to around 1000
ft or so, and we're going to
continue to drop by tomorrow.
500 ft by Wednesday, 400 ft
cooler air in place. I mean,
highs tomorrow for the low
lands only topping out in the
upper forties, and that's going
to be pretty chilly. Even some
of that snow is going to be
going to be in the upper
forties. So we're going to see
some of that snow again. We
also want to zoom in, even
seeing some isolated showers
when it comes to parts of the
foothills. We are expecting
some on and off showers to
take place for the low lands
because of this right here.
Next system rolling right
through and what we're seeing
right now. Very spotty
activity. That's exactly what
we can expect overnight and
tomorrow kind of on and off
rain. Now as the temperatures
continue to fall, this could
turn into that winter remix,
but we're expecting some
showers and some of those
temperatures will be in the
upper forties. We have some
injuries to pop up in the area,
not like what we saw this
morning, but it will still be
present as the temperatures
fall into the thirties. It is
going to be cold tomorrow
morning. A lot of us in the
mid thirties, at least the
majority of us, I should say
now the showers they continue
in the afternoon. I'll show
you that forecast next.
Public health experts are
bracing for more covid cases
in the coming months, but they
are also concerned about the
spread of the virus. The
coronavirus virus, the
coronavirus one subvariant has
driven an increase in cases in
parts of the northeast, forcing
some universities to reinstate
their mask mandate. But the
Biden administration says it
does not expect any substantial
changes in their own mass
guidance. The virus should not
control our lives anymore. And
at this point, we should
continue focusing on protecting
those who are not yet
protected. Doctors expect
infections to stay below
normal. The CDC says the
coronavirus virus is a
potential threat to the
public health. The
hospitalizations could occur
this fall when people battle
the flu and other respiratory
viruses. The city of
Philadelphia is bringing back
a mask mandate for indoor
public spaces. The city's
Health Department says they
are no longer in the all clear
zone for covid infection rates.
Instead, there's been a steady
increase in cases and
according to health officials,
mass are needed to prevent
another wave of infections. The
mass mandate will go into
effect next week. The city
of Philadelphia is bringing
back a mask mandate for
people who are not yet
vaccinated. They have one week
to prepare. Still ahead. The
worker shortage taking a big
toll on our fairies and our
local economy coming up to
push to get the boats back on

It has been a tough couple of
years in the largest public
ferry system in the United
States. Washington State
Ferries carry tens of millions
of riders every year from
tourists to tractor trailers to
everyday commuters. Rising
numbers of passengers are
increasing, and the number of
passengers is increasing.
The Ferries are taking a toll
on the ferry system. Even if
you don't take the ferry, the
service has a major impact on
our region. For example, the
Edmonds Kingston Ferry
represents an added economic
impact of $62 million in
annual spending. 955 commuter
and local jobs and 61 million
in annual labor income and the
ferries have reduced the
number of sailings, of course,
over the past six months
because of crew shortages.
That's been very frustrating
for the Ferries, and they're
not going to be able to
operate again. They're going
to have to wait until the
next year to navigate the
future. This is not a bridge
of a Washington State ferry
sure does look like one
because it's a simulator, but
this is where they train the
captains. But what the ferry
system really needs are those
people down below deck, but I
know nothing about engines and
how engines work, and it
sparked me to come here. Ben
is halfway through a year long
training program at Ballard's
Maritime Academy. It would have
been a lot easier for him to
get on the ferry. I'm a
professional fisherman. I'm
a professional fisherman is a
commercial fisherman, and I've
been commercial fishing for 10
years, and that's an issue for
the longest time. Maritime
relied on my dad sailed. My
uncle sailed. That doesn't work
anymore. Look no further than
the cruise shortage at the
ferry system. Would you like
to have something like this? If
you were training? Absolutely
when Jim went to the academy
and the ferry system, he
started to see the difference
between the two industries.
The industry indicates the
room he operates from as a
ferry boats chief engineer. I
found this industry. The
industry never came looking for
me this quarter in the advanced
diesels class, and that's what
the academy and the ferry
system, a big donor to the
school want to change a shift
to actively recruit people into
the industry. We're beginning
to see some of that. But that's
a massive cultural shift for
the industry. We're not
necessarily going to be
recruiting people. We're not
going to be hiring entirely
based on crewing. We don't have
enough people to run the boats.
The fairies let go of 140 out
of 1800 staffers who did not
get vaccinated under the state
worker mandate. Unclear how
many were crew and the
legislature does not allow
incentive hiring bonuses to
become a state worker. The
ferry system has prioritized
the runs in this order for a
return to normal service. Only
one boat service is allowed to
run. The ferry system is
planning to open in the fall
of 2021, our biggest route
traditionally, which is Seattle
Bainbridge. We're trialing that
right now. And once we can get
kind of three weeks of two
boat service, which would be
normal for that route. We'll
make that permanent. It's going
to be some time before the
ferry system returns those two
boat services on those two boat
lines, and not all of that will
happen. By the summer. In
Seattle, Matt Markovich, Fox
13 news. The ferry service
is open for business. The
ferry system is open for
business. The ferry system is
open for business opening. The
affected routes are on your
screen and will also have the
list. On FOX 13 Seattle dot
com. Tonight would have been a
great night to be on the ferry.
Take a look at this time lapse
video of the sunset. Over
Seattle really spectacular. Of
course, you can see we got some
of the clouds that are floating
through, but some great sunset
out there. Temperatures, though,
are really cooling off tonight.
I mean, we're already down into
the thirties. Not even midnight
yet. So let's check in with our
weather forecast. We're going
to see some of those clouds
start to come in. So we're
going to see some of those
clouds. The low average is
going to continue.
Unfortunately here, David and
Hannah, of course, good evening
to you at home. Sallane Doppler
View showing Yes, the cooler
temperatures arriving because
that dip in the gesture, but
also experiencing some of that
snow when it comes as higher
elevations like the cascades,
and now we're starting to see
some isolated showers creep on
in when it comes to areas like
Westport and stretching down
towards the south. So what
we're seeing right here. Those
spotty showers that continues
to come in and then we're
seeing some of those snow
showers and then we're seeing
some of those snow showers
because of that big dip here
in that upper level low
pressure system. Not rolling
out some of that wintery mix to
take place. So with that we are
expecting maybe a little bit of
that dusting, but overall best
shot for that will take place
across the foothills and along
parts of the coast as well, but
overall not as significant as
what we saw this morning. We
don't have any winter weather
advisories in place, at least
for the majority of Western
Washington. Now today we did
see some snow showers and
some of those snow showers
continue to come in and then
we're going to see some of
what's taking place with our
atmosphere here and the
temperatures they are dropping
a lot of us in the upper 30s
lower 40s still holding on at
least in Seattle and Everett
over in Tacoma thirties over
in Olympia 36 degrees. Yeah
tomorrow morning we're
definitely going to fall into
those mid thirties. Even some
of us in those lower thirties.
So that's why we have to watch
out for that snow mix here,
but overall on and off showers
and some of those snow showers
and some of those snow showers
and some of those snow showers
and some of those snow showers
and some of those snow showers
and a few miles prayer for a
lot of us today. Still a little
breezy tonight and those wind
speeds continue by tomorrow
afternoon. We're talking about
gusts up to around 25 miles an
hour. So as we fast forward
tomorrow morning, there's a
low pressure system arriving.
You can see that counter
clockwise rotation, spotty
action temperatures starting to
drop. So a little bit of that
wintery mix popping up early
tomorrow morning, all of that
transitioning into on and off
rain throughout the day. Not
ruling out those sun breaks as
we come into the weekend.
Tomorrow morning, a little bit
of a low pressure system
coming in with some snow
showers coming up as it comes
to parts of the cascades and
the Olympics. Everything starts
to taper off early Wednesday
morning, however, still
present when it comes to that
wintery mix, but overall
gradually decreasing when it
comes to the amount of
precipitation we're expecting
even when it comes to what we
had earlier this morning
compared to what we're
expecting tomorrow morning. Now
tomorrow afternoon temperatures
punch back up, but only in the
forties. I mean, we're talking
about 10 degrees below normal.
We're expecting a little bit
of a snowfall in the next
couple of days. We'll see
that. We'll see that tomorrow
morning. We're looking at
40. A 45 down across the
South. We're looking at more
of the rain and the wind
speeds picking up along the
coast. Foothills morning mix
and then we'll see maybe some
of those sun breaks happening
best shot of that happening in
the afternoon hours for a
mountain passes a temperature
of only 32 degrees. So yes,
more accumulation. We're
talking about 3 to 8 inches
for those passes. So as we
take a look at the seven day
forecast tonight, 37 degrees
tomorrow, 47 morning rain, so
we're expecting some of those
high temperatures to come in
the next couple of days. We
have some showers and
showers and hours in the
afternoon as well through the
end of the work week and then
by the weekend. We do start to
see some clearing happening
just in time for Easter Sunday
56 degrees for the high and
then we hit those sixties
right where we should be this
time of year, and that is a
look what we can expect.
Coming up a heartbroken mother
asking for somebody to step up
to help her five month old
baby, the critical need this
morning. We're going to be
talking about the
weather. Fox 13 weather is
brought to you by your locally
owned McDonald's restaurants
of Western Washington. Take a
treat retreat and enjoy a
medium iced coffee all day for
just $2. At Fred Meyer, we
believe fresh is all about
standards like for oranges. A
mother making a desperate plea
tonight for someone to step up
to help her five month old
baby. The mother is now
expecting her baby to be
sent to Children's Hospital
because he's in need of a new
liver. In fact, Benny is
actually never lived anywhere
else except the hospital. He
was born with a rare metabolic
disorder. And his parents were
told at one point that their
baby only had 24 hours to live.
FOX 13 news reporter Jennifer
Lee spoke with his mom about
her hopes and dreams for her
feisty little fighter. He is
a baby. He's a little baby. He
is a little baby. He's a little
baby. He's a little baby. He's
Benny as his mom likes to call
him. He's a duck enthusiast. He
has a little beanie baby duck
that he absolutely loves.
She's been by his side every
step of the way since he was
born in Las Vegas five months
ago, he really truly is a
fighter in a miracle, baby. And
I mean, he just gives us so
much strength. His mom, Kaylee
was born with a rare metabolic
disorder. She was born with a
rare metabolic disorder. She
didn't want to eat projectile
vomiting. And they were going
to do a sepsis work up in Las
Vegas, but a doctor had a
brilliant idea to check his
ammonia. All of these are
symptoms of a rare metabolic
disorder called propionic
acidemia. He's unable to
process certain proteins. And
if he does, ammonia can build
up toxins in his body. He couldn't
have done it without his
family. He's been in the
hospital for a long time.
She's been with Conrad. He says
her son went into lactic
acidosis, which means he had an
extraordinary amount of acid in
his little body levels that
have generally killed adults.
The emotions this picture
brings up that we really
thought that would be. The
only family picture we'd ever
have with Benny. And we're so
sad that he's not here. He's
not here. He's not here. He's
not here. He's not here. I just
hope he gets that liver and
he's on the road to recovery.
Somehow Benny survived and
doctors can explain it, but he
also doesn't have any brain
damage, which they expected.
Instead, the five month old is
now in acute liver failure.
They told us at Primary
Children's Hospital that if he
didn't have a liver transplant,
he would likely die, but they
could not do it on a baby that
small, which is why both mom
and dad are still in the
hospital. They are still
waiting for a liver transplant
to be released to receive a
liver transplant status. One B
is for somebody that is very,
very stick and will die without
a liver, and that is what what
Benny is in the 28 year old
says the last five months have
taught her to be grateful and
have faith every night I go to
bed. My vision is just taking
him to a park at like two and
seeing him run and play and
see him play and play and
see him play and play and
see him play and play for him
in Seattle, Jennifer Lee Fox
13 news all Benny's mom wants
is for him to be a happy,
healthy boy, and she knows it's
asking for a lot. But if anyone
feels a tug at their heart to
be an organ donor, you'd be
giving this little boy the gift
of life. How can you not so if
you are interested, the first
step. Is by going on the U Dub

it's going to feel even colder.
37 degrees expected for that
overnight low. A lot of us are
going to be in the mid even the
lower 30, so it is going to be

Hi, that's it. We're talking

degrees. We're going to be in

morning for some of us, but
it'll still be present and that
forecast continues here through
the rest of the work week
afternoon sunshine happening a
