The police blotter feature is both a description of a small selection of police incidents and a statistical roundup of all calls to the King County Sheriff’s Office that are dispatched to on-duty police officers. The City of Kenmore contracts with the KCSO for police services. The Bothell-Kenmore Reporter Police Blotter is not intended to be representative of all police calls originating in Kenmore.
