COMTO Washington joins our community and transit professionals across the country is expressing our deepest condolences to the family of the King County Metro Transit Operator, Shawn Yim, who was tragically killed while serving our community on December 18, 2024. We mourn with his family and our members and friends at Metro as we honor this life that was so tragically taken.
​
Each day our transit operators and staff provide this vital service to their community, neighbors and friends. They do their jobs professionally and some see it as a calling to serve others and to improve the livelihoods and transportation options of our customers. Hence, it is difficult to comprehend why someone would take the life of a public servant simply doing their job and providing a community service.
​
Our hearts and prayers are with our brothers and sisters at King County Metro and we stand with you.
