Officer Moreno was killed July 22 during a pursuit that eventually led to the arrest of three teens. The 16-year-old driver of the vehicle is being charged with second-degree murder. The other two were charged with unlawful possession of a firearm.

Moreno was hit by another police vehicle.

“This is a sad time for Officer Moreno’s family, the Kent Police Department, the City of Kent family and the community,” Kent Police Chief Rafael Padilla said. “We hope everyone will join us as we remember Diego and pay our respects to his family.”
