ICE agents chase person fleeing arrest at Port Orchard business

Aug 15, 2026·Location: Port Orchard, WA

ICE agents entered a business near SW Sedgwick Road and Sidney Road SW in Port Orchard around 12:30 p.m. on Aug. 15 and attempted to arrest a person working inside who was wanted on an immigration warrant, prompting the person to flee on foot with agents in pursuit. A customer called 911, and Port Orchard Police Department officers responded to verify the agents' credentials but were not notified before the operation and did not assist, citing the Keep Washington Working Act. ICE agents wore tactical attire marked "Federal Officer Fugitive Detention Police" and drove an unmarked black SUV with emergency lights; no one was injured.
