Acting on a tip from Burien Police, last month the King County Sheriff's Office Precinct 4 Special Emphasis Team was able to ID a drug trafficker selling to customers at the El Pique Mexican Restaurant in Burien.

Their investigation found he was distributing across several other cities, including Woodinville, SeaTac, Shoreline, Bellevue, Kirkland and Redmond.

They arrested him and booked him for possession to distribute and possession of a stolen firearm.
