By Monique LeTourneau Daily Evergreen staff It took two cars and an old GMC Sierra Classic to haul all of the food donated at the Martin Luther King Jr. Day food drive. By the time the four volunteers brought in the last box of food, tracking in a thick trail of snow and ice in the process, there was standing room only among the boxes and bags at the front desk of Pullman Child Welfare on Sunday night. “How much do you think you collected?” asked Jack Alexander, volunteer of two and a half years at the food bank. The volunteers started low, wagering 400 to 1,000 pounds, and then threw out higher numbers. After a few minutes, the total weight HARVEY DOTY/DAILY EVERGREEN of donated food was 1,035 pounds – enough to Leonard Pitts Jr., the 2004 Pulitzer Prize winner for commentary, responds to a question posed by facilitator Brett sustain the food bank for a week.

Scuba bank robber gets 16 years for theft TACOMA — A bank robber who wore a wetsuit under his clothes and tried to escape with scuba tanks into Puget Sound has been sentenced to 16 years in prison. U.S. District Judge Franklin D. Burgess sentenced Charles Everett Coma, 38, of Olympia, on Friday for armed bank robbery, brandishing a firearm during a crime of violence and assault on a federal officer. Coma was on supervised release for another bank robbery in April 2004 when he held up a KeyBank branch in Olympia, the U.S. attorney’s office said. Police saw his fleeing car crash through a gate at an industrial area on Budd Inlet. Coma got out with scuba tanks and ran toward the water. He threw a backpack containing the robbery money into the sound, but was tackled before he was able to enter the water. Police recovered $6,000 taken from the bank and found a loaded rifle used in the robbery.

Christian A. Gonzales-Ramirez, 25, of Warden, was stopped Thursday in a car not far from his home and was jailed with bail set at $1 million. The case stems from the death of Frankie Corral Jr., who was found lying face down Jan. 2 in a dirt driveway outside a duplex in Cascade Valley, just outside Moses Lake. An autopsy showed he had been shot multiple times in the torso. A 20-year-old man who also was found shot outside the duplex was taken to Sacred Heart Medical Center You never know what you’re going to miss. www.dailyevergreen.com in Spokane.
