Officer Narrative
Narrative
25-80844
Unless otherwise stated, the following occurred in the City of Renton, County of King, State of
Washington.
On 12-18-2025 at approximately 1808 hours I was dispatched to a non-injury hit and run collision that
occurred just south of NE Sunset BLVD on Duvall.AVE NE.
Upon arrival, I contacted the driver of Unit#2 (Yulu) and confirmed she was not injured. I
collected her driving documents and independent recollection of events leading up to the
collision.
Yulu said she was driving southbound in lane 2 of 2 on Duvall AVE NE just south of NE Sunset
BLVD.As she was about to pass a driveway to a shopping complex to her right, Unit#1 pulled
out of the parking lot and turned southbound into lane 2 of 2 onto Duvall AVE NE in front of her.
The rear driver side of Unit#1 collided with the front passenger corner of Unit#2.Yulu said Unit
#1 pulled out in front of her quickly and she was unable to stop in time to avoid a collision.After
the collision occurred,Yulu followed Unit#1 into the parking lot at 4601 NE Sunset BLVD. Yulu
said the driver of Unit#1 was blaming her for the collision and then left the scene without
exchanging information.Yulu then called 911.Yulu described the female driver as a black
female adult, approximately 40 years old, curly black hair, and wearing black clothing. Yulu also
said there was a black female passenger who she did not interact with. Yulu said she did not
want to press charges for hit and run and only wanted to exchange information.
Yulu had taken a picture of Unit#1 which showed Washington license plate BOB5241 affixed to
the rear of it. I ran the license plate through WACIC/NCIC and it returned to Tamissa Elaine
Smoots DOB: 04-15-1987 at 10918 Portland AVE E, Apt D220,Tacoma WA 98445. 1 ran Tamissa
through WACIC/NCIC and she returned with a valid drivers license. I located a phone number for
Tamissa in a Police system and called her at approximately 1835 hours and she did not answer. I
Left her a voicemail summarizing why I was calling and requested she call me back.
At approximately 1836 hours,Tamissa called into 911 on the same phone number I had found
for her and the CAD notes read, "SMOOTS,TAMISSA 206-859-9650... OTHER INVOLVED NOW
CALLING IN, STATES FEM IN WHI BMW REFUSED TO EXCHANGE INFO W/RP,WALKED AWAY
FROM VEHS AND GOT ONTO FONE... RP WAITED FOR 10 MIN, FEM REFUSED ACCEPT RPS
INFO, RP HAD TO LEAVE... REQUESTING ***FONE CONTACT."
This incident occurred in the sCity of Renton,King County,Washington State.

Officer Narrative-Continued
I proceeded to call Tamissa at 1836 hours, 1837 hours, and 1839 hours. At 1840 hours I sent her
a text message that read, "Renton Police here. I see you called 911 at the same time I was
calling you. Please call me back."As of 2209 hours, I have not heard back from Tamissa.
At approximately 2039 hours,Yulu called back and requested to file charges against the driver of
Unit#1 for hit and run.Yulu also said that her car had captured video of the collision. I sent Yulu
an Axon link and she uploaded the video. In the video I observe the following:
Yulu was traveling southbound on Duvall AVE NE just south of NE Sunset BLVD when Unit#1
pulled out in front of her from a private driveway on the west side of the roadway.The rear driver
side corner of Unit#1 collided with the front passenger corner of Yulu's vehicle.The driver of
Unit#1 then puts the flashers on and exits the vehicle from the driver door. The female is a black
female adult with black hair, wearing a black sweater over a light-colored sweater. She is also
wearing what looks to be Seahawks sportswear; blue, green, and gray colored striped pants with
a matching hoodie tied around her waist.The female then gets back into Unit#1 and proceeds
southbound on Duvall AVE NE with her flashers on. Nothing else is captured in the video.
I compared Tamissa's Department of Licensing(DOL) photo to the woman in the video and they
Look similar. Tamissa's DOL photo shows a facial piercing under the right side of her bottom lip
that I can't see in the video due to clarity and distance. Due to Tamissa calling into 911 and
reporting that she was involved in this collision, her calling from the same phone number that
the Renton Police Department has associated to her, and the video taken from the Unit#2 that
shows the driver of Unit#1, 1 believe that it is more likely than not that Tamissa was the driver of
Unit#1.
I have probable cause to arrest Tamissa for RCW 46.52.020 hit and run. The RCW states, "(3)
Unless otherwise provided in subsection (7) of this section the driver of any vehicle involved in

Tamissa violated this when she failed to stay on scene the collision and exchange information. I
completed SECTOR citation #5A0938865 to be reviewed by Renton Prosecutors.
I uploaded the photos I took of Yulu's vehicle to Axon.
