The King County prosecutor’s office said the arraignment for Christopher Monfort, which had been set for today, is now scheduled for Dec. 1, if he is out of the hospital.
The 41-year-old Tukwila man has been at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle since he was wounded in a Nov. 6 confrontation with officers.
