Thank you to the commuting public this morning for your patience while we closed roads to ensure your safety during our investigation.
"Thank you, Senator Wellman and Representative Thai, for your unwavering support of the Mercer Island Marine Patrol! Your dedication to public safety is commendable. It was great to showcase the joint on land and on water operations with WDFW, WSP, King County Sheriffs, NORCOM,
