Covington, WA - Two convicted felons accused of stealing about $2,000 worth of beauty products from an Ulta store in Covington pleaded not guilty Thursday to charges stemming from the alleged theft and a subsequent police pursuit.
King County prosecutors say 24-year-old Kane Christensen and 30-year-old Jaycob Fernandez were involved in the Aug. 20 theft at the Ulta store.
Deputies began tracking the pair after an alarm was triggered at the store. Investigators say surveillance video showed Fernandez leaving the store without paying for about $2,000 worth of merchandise before getting into a waiting vehicle.
Deputies later spotted the suspects in the stolen Hyundai Sonata at a gas station in Kent, according to charging documents.
As deputies moved in, the driver sped away, leaving Fernandez behind. The fleeing vehicle struck the back of another SUV before driving recklessly through traffic.
