GRANITE FALLS — Local police and wildlife officers are reminding people not to accidentally attract bears with garbage, bird feeders
and there were no violations related to the shooting. They also concluded that, despite some contradictory reports, the animal had not been behaving unusually aggressively. “Rumors started to abound the way rumors do,” said Capt. Alan Myers with the regional Fish and Wildlife office. “There were reports that the bear was aggressive and
Stench’s source still a mystery
chasing kids and animals. Our officers did not find that was the case.” A property owner in the area gave permission for a hunter with proper tags to shoot the bear, Myers said. It is bear season. Officials get reports each year of bears, usually black bears, See BEAR, Page A6

ARLINGTON — A gentle nudge can cause a dizzying spin. At 25 mph, the force of it almost passes for a parking mishap, a brief shudder in the car on contact. And that’s just the practice bump. At 45 mph, it’s a full, stomach-churning spin-out with squealing tires and flying mud.
DAILY
EVERETT — If central Everett seemed to have a bit of a bouquet Friday morning, you weren’t imagining it. The source of the stink is not certain, but Joanne Todd of the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency said they had already received a complaint from the Rucker Hill neighborhood by 10 a.m., with the smell described as either “formaldehyde, manure or sewage,” she said. The stink was also noticeable in the lower elevations of the Port Gardner neighborhood, and the city received complaints from the 5000 block of Evergreen Way and the 5800 block of Lombard Avenue, said Marla Carter, a spokeswoman for Everett’s Public Works Department. During the day, city staff went out to investigate but couldn’t track it down. There were not any major sewer line breaks, Carter said, and some manholes that are known for venting noxious odors were also eliminated as the source. One staff member said that the smell seemed to have come in from the Snohomish River valley, Carter said. By mid-afternoon, much of the smell appeared to have dissipated, except when the wind came from the southeast. The Clean Air Agency also opened an investigation into the smell. “It’s been assigned to our inspector, and if he’s up there he’ll look into it,” Todd said. By midafternoon, however, there hadn’t been an update to the complaint. Agency inspectors are typically on the road all the time, making regularly scheduled inspections, so spot checks of sudden events are usually dealt with on a case-by-case basis. “Odors in particular are really hard to nail down,” Todd said. The inspectors have to visit the site where the complainant detected the smell and work from there. Chris Winters: 425374-4165; cwinters@ heraldnet.com. Twitter: @ Chris_At_Herald.
