MOSES LAKE — The Grant County Sheriff's Office Major Crimes Detectives are seeking assistance regarding one case but two different aspects of the case – one regarding a Harley-Davidson motorcycle and the other regarding a young girl who was at Slices Pizza.
“It's the same investigation, but the motorcycle has no connection to the little girl,” Grant County Sheriff’s Office Public Information Officer Kyle Foreman said.
Slices
GCSO is seeking information regarding the parents or caregivers of a young girl who visited Slices Pizza in Moses Lake during the summer of 2024. Slices Pizza, its management and its employees are not involved in any crime, according to the GCSO statement.
The suspect in the crime is in custody.
Harley
GCSO was seeking information about the owner of the maroon Harley Davidson motorcycle in Moses Lake during the summer of 2024. The owner of the motorcycle is not a suspect but may have unknowingly witnessed a crime that happened at the Dollar General store in Moses Lake’s Cascade Valley community, GCSO wrote. The suspect in the crime is in custody.
An update on the motorcycle-riding witness was posted Wednesday evening indicating that the witness had been contacted. Investigators are not releasing his identification in order to protect his privacy, Foreman said in a statement, but indicated that investigators are grateful for the public’s assistance.
Those with information on either of these cases are asked to call or text Detective Katrina Ball at 509-237-3384.
