If you’re like me, this warm weather has you thinking about getting out of the office and into a large body of water as soon as possible.

To make sure you do that safely, Seattle Parks and Recreation is selling low-cost life jackets at Evans Pool one Saturday every month through September starting this weekend.

From Parks:

Drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional injury and death among children ages 1 to 14. Wearing a life jacket saves lives. Washington State law requires children 12 and under to wear a Coast Guard-approved life jacket or life vest on vessels fewer than 19-feet long. In addition, there must be a life jacket on board for each person older than 12 years.

Life jackets are $20 for infants and youths and $30 for teens and adults. Buyers younger than 18 must have a parent or guardian with them.

You can pick up your life jackets from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 19, June 16, July 21, Aug. 18 and Sept. 15.

SEATTLE -- A car thief rammed a number of cars and hit two pedestrians Friday evening while trying to get away from police.

The bizarre incident started sometime after 6:30 p.m. when police recovered a stolen car in the Green Lake neighborhood. An officer called the registered owner to come get the car, but before the owner could reclaim it, the car was stolen again.

Police gave chase as the white Honda Accord sped northbound on Greenwood Ave. N. When the driver reached an Art Walk near N. 73rd St. and Greenwood, he became stuck in traffic. He rammed a patrol car and hit a pedestrian and was able to continue northbound.

Witnesses at the scene said the man who was hit was "launched into the air." The man, who is in his 60s, was taken to Harborview Medical Center with minor injuries to his leg.

Travis Tyler was among the dozens of people enjoying the Greenwood Artwalk when the car thief came barreling down the road.

"All of a sudden you just hear tires squealing," he said. "He hit the guy and the guy flipped and landed on the concrete."
