Kent Raceway's Annual Race is called off due to security concerns.

City Officials have cancelled the Kent Raceway Annual Easter Race this Sunday in response to Washington Police Force missing for over a week. Officers CC and Officer Ninjadan were expected to provide security to the event, deputizing members of the community to aide.
A spokesperson for Kent Raceway said in a statement "...with the amount of valuable vehicles, weapons raffles, and cash being bet in this fun event, we can not chance holding the event without a Police presence".

A City Official told Seattle News that " the event may be rescheduled in the event our Police Force returns to Washington or new Officers are hired and trained, but it's not our highest priority."
Local business report that they are sad the event won't take place and that it attracts a lot of customers to their shops.
