The Washougal Police Department confirmed today that Derik Ford, a former Washougal mayoral candidate and owner of 2 Rivers Bar & Grill, has died. His family was notified of his passing on Friday, and his cause of death has not been confirmed.
Ford had been running for mayor, but he suspended his campaign following a domestic violence arrest a month ago.
Ford had entered a rehabilitation center, and court records show he violated a no-contact order. He was in court earlier this week.
This is a developing story.
