Parking lot meth sting yields 2 arrests

Police arrested a 24-year-old man and 14-year-old boy Wednesday afternoon after setting up a methamphetamine "sting" in a McDonald's parking lot.

The two suspects, both from Issaquah, were arrested on suspicion of delivering drugs. The 24-year-old was booked into King County Jail, and the 14-year-old was held briefly and then released to his parents, Issaquah police Cmdr. Stan Conrad said.

A detective posed as the buyer in the deal, which occurred in the 4100 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway Southeast.
