Another insane Monday afternoon in downtown Seattle, Washington

Another insane Monday afternoon in downtown Seattle, Washington.

I was doing my usual rounds, about to report some POSITIVE NEWS regarding the encampment sweep at 3rd Ave & Pike St this morning.

Mayor Bruce Harrell defending the corner from “trap tents” that are set up consistently to sell drugs just a block away from City Hall. As usual, I wanted to show the progress.

But one fella didn’t want me pointing the camera at all the drug activity. So he pulled out a knife and started chasing me! He also threatened to kill me and hurled the N-word and offense Asian slurs in my direction.

Witnesses called cops. But this maniac ended up tripping on the ground, ending the encounter. I did not wait around for police.

Will be happy to provide SPD any information, but I know the agency is understaffed so I will not bother filing a report.
