📰 News we're reading
• Immigration law firm founded by Alexandra Lozano shuts down (tri-cityherald.com) — A large Tukwila-based immigration law firm, now called Luz Legal, is shutting down, leaving many local clients unsure who will handle their cases next. After its founder surrendered her law license, the firm says other attorneys may take over files, but critics question the lack of transparency about who they are. 
• Randy Arozarena homers in 10th to send Mariners to wild victory over Orioles (tri-cityherald.com) — A Mariners reliever got called back to the big leagues while sitting down for an anniversary dinner at Din Tai Fung in Tukwila, then flew overnight and earned his first major-league save in Baltimore. The story focuses on Seattle’s dramatic extra-innings win but gives Tukwila a fun cameo in the pitcher’s whirlwind 24 hours.
• FIFA: Renton Police to offer security for Belgium team (auburn-reporter.com) — Tukwila police officers will help Renton handle a major security load during this summer’s FIFA World Cup, backing up Renton and Kent as they protect Belgium’s team and local viewing parties. The agreement ensures Renton’s regular patrol staffing stays intact while federal grants reimburse the extra-duty work.
