Officer Narrative
Narrative
25-3296
This incident was captured on my body worn video camera.This report is a summary of events
that occurred and is not an exact sequencing of events. Statements have been paraphrased and
summarized.
On 04-12-2025 1 was working as a police officer in a fully marked, department issued uniform,
patrolling in a marked police vehicle for the city of Renton. At approximately 1041 hours I was
dispatched to a non-injury hit and run at the intersection of SE 155th Pl/152nd Ave SE, City of
Renton, County of King, State of Washington.
I gathered from the call notes, a minute ago a vehicle went into a fence and neighborhood sign
just east of the call location.The vehicle was a grey or tan sedan that left towards Maple Valley
Highway.
En route to the call location,the reporting party(Paul Stumpf) advised dispatch that the driver
drove slow before hitting the sign and fence. Paul was unable to give a description of the driver
of the vehicle.
Paul gave dispatch the license plate (CPU1926/WA)which came back to a 2005 Nissan Altima.
I conducted an area check for the vehicle on Maple Valley Highway, and I located the vehicle in
the number one lane of westbound traffic on the 2000 block. I was about two car lengths behind
the Altima and followed it for about two blocks.While I followed the Altima, I observed the
Altima maintain their own lane, and did not give me any indication the driver was impaired. I
attempted to pull over the vehicle by initiating my emergency lights and sirens. The vehicle
switched to the number two lane, and pulled over at the 2900 block of SE 5th Ct.
When I made contact with the vehicle, I observed that there were two occupants in the vehicle. I
advised the driver he was being detained for a hit and run investigation.The driver was positively
identified as Eddie A. Martinez(DOB 02-23-1992)via WADL. The front right passenger appeared
to be intoxicated, as he slurred his speech,was unable to focus, and repeatedly answered
questions for the driver when I specifically asked the driver only questions. The front right

passenger refused to identify himself, and the passenger admitted he consumed alcohol a few
hours prior to our contact.
As I spoke with Eddie, I did not smell any odors of intoxicants come from his breath, I did not see
any drugs/drug paraphernalia in plain view sight of the vehicle, and only observed that his eyes
were bloodshot. Eddie was not very forthcoming when he answered my questions, but he said
that he did not hit anything with his vehicle.
I observed minor cosmetic damage to the rear driver side door. 1 did not see any damage to the
front of Eddie's vehicle.
I re-contacted Paul by phone and he advised the following: Paul was outside of his yard and
heard a loud crash. He looked up and saw the Altima at a forty-five-degree angle into the
community sign.The Altima then reversed into a fence at slow speeds that damaged the fence.
Paul tried to have them stop as he yelled "Hey" at the driver.The driver of the Altima then drove
off towards Maple Valley Highway.
Paul advised that the windows were too dark to get a good look of the driver. Paul said he would
not be able to identify the driver.
I re-contacted Eddie and asked him if he would take voluntary standardized field sobriety testing
(SFST's). Eddie refused to take SFST's.
I did not have probable cause to believe that Eddie was an impaired driver or that he caused the
damage to the fence and fled.
I advised Eddie that he was free to leave.
I contacted Paul in person at the Emerald Crest Mobile Home Park located at 15400 SE 155th Pl.
Paul advised the damage was to the Emerald Crest Mobile Home Park sign and a fence at Unit
#105.
1 met with Victor L.Alder(DOB 01-10-1975)who is the owner of Unit#105.Victor advised that he
had very minor damage and did not want to press charges for the damage.

Paul gave me the email address for the HOA president of Emerald Crest Mobile Home Park. I
emailed the president to give him the case number and inform him of the damage caused to the
Emerald Crest Mobile Home Park sign.
Paul advised that there are no surveillance cameras in the area that could have captured the
incident.
I took photos of the fence and sign and uploaded the photos to evidence.com.
This concludes my involvement in this case.
