‘Deeply loved': Victim in Lakewood shooting ID'ed as 23-year-old man

A man from Belfair died over the weekend after a shooting in Lakewood. According to the Pierce County Medical Examiner’s public portal , the man was 23-year-old James Declements. The shooting happened at about 1:40 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 6 outside a strip mall in the 8700 block of South Tacoma Way, The News Tribune previously reported. Police don’t believe Declements was an intentional target, according to Sgt. Charles Porche, spokesperson for the Lakewood Police Department. A “Chevy Tahoe-type vehicle” turned into the lot, and a passenger shot several rounds out of a gun at “no one in particular,” then sped off. When officers arrived, the vehicle had already left the scene, Porche said. Declements was in critical condition on Friday, Porche previously told The News Tribune. The ME portal says Declements died on Saturday, Nov. 7. “Detectives will continue working on the incident to develop leads to help identify the suspect in this shooting,” Porche wrote. “If there is anyone that has information to assist them in the investigation they are encouraged to call the Police Department.” The News Tribune has reached out to LPD to ask if there have been any updates in the investigation since Friday. ‘James

'Second chances' program at Kitsap County hits milestone

PORT ORCHARD -- Since its inception 27 years ago, 1,000 individuals have graduated from the Kitsap County Adult Drug Court. The diversion program offers court-supervised substance use treatment as an alternative to prosecution for eligible adults charged with certain felony, misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor offenses. Participants who complete the roughly 18-month program will have their criminal charges cleared. It is one of more than 100 therapeutic courts in Washington, which serve people whose criminal cases are linked to substance use disorders or other behavioral health needs. Kitsap County ADC marked its milestone anniversary during the program's largest graduation class of the year, which was split into two ceremonies on Oct. 30. During the morning session, Judge Michelle Adams reflected on each graduate's progress, followed by some words from the graduate. It concluded with an attorney from the Kitsap County Prosecutor's Office announcing the participant's case was dismissed — made official through documentation confirming the decision and a firm handshake. Former Kitsap County Superior Court Judge Jay Roof, a key figure in launching the program in 1999, spoke at the event about KCADC's beginnings and accomplishments. Back then, Roof said his initiative was met with pushback from his colleagues who questioned

New barbecue restaurant now open in downtown Gig Harbor

My 4 Sons BBQ has opened in downtown Gig Harbor with a menu of brisket, pork and chicken by the pound or plate, paired with sides like smoked mac and cheese, BBQ beans and a surprisingly refreshing broccoli salad. It’s still in a soft-open phase, with select-day meat specials — including smoked turkey on Thursdays and beef-back ribs on Fridays and Saturdays — not yet available. But the core menu of meat by the pound and sides in various sizes is ready alongside a full bar with a few local beers on tap and cocktails ranging from mules and margaritas to a bacon old fashioned. Owners Matthew and Brenda Henning purchased the former tenant at 7707 Pioneer Way , Brimstone PNW, late this summer. The couple has operated a takeout-focused barbecue business in the Midland area of Tacoma since 2018. Speaking to The News Tribune in August, Matt Henning said they had been casually looking for a second location and appreciated the rustic vibe of the former Brimstone space. It’s also much larger than their flagship in Tacoma, which would allow some experimentation. He had teased the likes of beef cheek nachos, which were already featured at least once as
