- A Spokane Valley family walked into their home Monday to find a stranger wearing white face paint inside. The Spokane County Sheriff's Office said it started when a man called 911 to report he and his younger sister came home and found Justin Watson, 40, sitting at their kitchen table. The caller told investigators Watson had two airsoft guns and two cases of beer with him at their table. Investigators then went into the living room where they found Watson standing in white face paint and wearing one of the homeowner's clothes. Deputies ordered Watson to get on the ground but instead, he sat on the couch. He was taken into custody without incident. (KXLY Spokane)
