Old vehicles, junk vehicles. If you have a vehicle that you have lost a title for or never had the title. There are ways for it to go away. Or someone has just left it on your property.

1. Impound to a tow company who is an RTTO, This usually has no cost to the property owner. Some towing companies will charge a fee for a regular vehicle. We charge for RV style vehicles / trailers as we have to pay to dispose of them.

2. Title or In lieu of Title form. The In Lieu of Title can be obtained from Department of Licensing or a sub agent like Tri Cities Licensing offices. No need to get a new title to dispose of a vehicle. Then call a scrap yard, a towing company who will remove it. Both of which may charge for the towing service.

3. Junk Vehicle Affidavit: This is a form you can download online, then fill out and have the Local law enforcement sign off on. They will have to come inspect the VIN, check to see if it is stolen and give you the owners information. You then mail the owners last known address with a certified letter (keep proof of this) and then call a towing company or scrap company to tow it away.

This information is for a vehicle on Private Property. If you have a question feel free to call Ken's Auto Rescue during business hours and will try to give you the proper answers.

Reckless Driving Arrest

On 06/26/2026 at approximately 0312 hours officers were in the area of W Clearwater Ave and N Union St when three motorcycles were observed speeding down W Clearwater Ave, their speed was approximately 100 MPH.

An officer was further west on W Clearwater Ave and observed the motorcycles exceeding 120 MPH.

At 0328 hours officers contacted three motorcycles in Columbia Park fitting the description from the earlier reckless driving. It was found that none of the motorcycles had license plates, two of the drivers had a suspended license, and these motorcycles were linked to a habitual reckless driving complaint in the 3700 block of W 9th Ave.

When officers went to place all three into custody, 22 year old Gabriel Sprague began to resist arrest. He was safely taken into custody after a short struggle. No one was injured during the struggle.

All three of the motorcycles were impounded.

22 year old Gabriel Sprague was booked into the Benton County Jail on Reckless Driving, Driving on a Suspended License in the 2nd Degree, City Park Violation, Resisting Arrest, False Reporting, and Obstructing a Public Servant.
