Theft, vandalism plague Washington businesses and owners have had enough
Lynnwood police are searching for a thief who stole more than a $1,000 in cash from a teen and his family at a local nonprofit earlier this week.
The theft was caught on camera, and the incident occurred in less than a minute at Bella’s Voice at 4001 198th Street SW in Lynnwood, which has two thrift stores for clothing and furniture.

A woman wielding a hammer in Tacoma during the weekend is was charged with criminal mischief, as she was accused of smashing 56 windows at more than a dozen businesses.
That woman, 47-year-old Tami Areson, is no stranger to police or prison in Washington. She is now held, pending the outcome of a mental health evaluation, to determine her competency to stand trial.

Some Tacoma businesses are playing loud music to deter unwanted activity in their parking lots. But, the stores are facing backlash from neighbors and they could end up in trouble with the city.

An effort to counter violent crime in Tacoma is leading to fewer reports of shootings, stabbings, and assaults overall, but the police department’s added emphasis along South Hosmer Street has yet to make a difference for most neighbors.

You all stood by and let them destroy the P.D. what did you expect?
And what is the kicker? Bob Ferguson our Attorney General thinks he has done such a great job the we should elect him to governor. This election is going to be an IQ test for Washington voters

And then there are "truthers" who are committed to "disengaging from the system". I believe that is an evil in itself; to see evil running rampant, and then do nothing. It's an excuse to be a coward.
It’s the laws, the decriminalizing of every law that was set as a safe guard. Remove the politicians in power and let police do their jobs.
When you're soft on crime and even softer on criminal behavior, this is the result. WA State is headed in the wrong direction, and has been for a long time.
Can’t believe how Seattle is. I grew up there. Hard to grasp. I live in SoCal and not LA. This is nuts.
I liked visiting Portland for the food. Like so many others. And like many others, I will never, ever set foot there again.

Amazing how they didnt blur the face of this criminal. I wonder why?
If they still vote Democrat then they haven't had enough
The 711 should play a high pitch beeping noise that only younger ppl can hear or ppl with really good hearing i think there's a McDonald's that does that
:23 Unfortunately this is a misguided attempt at advocacy by our governor. We are in King County but the same thing happens to us. We call 911 and sometimes the same day someone drives by the house that calls 911 and shoots at the house. I signed onto a recall for our governor only to have it thrown out by the secretary of state for lack of interest. Nobody has "had enough" and it shows in their actions. It doesn't matter how you vote because voter laws are ignored and nobody is willing to step up and remove anyone from office so get used to it. The public's actions prove to be different than the media claims.

When you have to work 2 or 3 jobs to just afford the basics then times are not good. The stock market is only an indicator that the rich are profiting. The poorest are encouraged to steal at the expense of the working class.
What do you expect when you vote for these policies? You choose it and then get mad when it happens. It's time to start prioritizing what's important for you and voting for it. You can't have it both ways. Stop voting for the same people who do nothing to change things
Cat chow?
This is what democratic policies do.
Bwahahahahah! Votes have consequences. You voted for this! Stay woke!
Keep voting democrat lol
Ahhh the sky is faliing’! The criminals are running wild -- ahhhh we’re all gunna die…. Goddamn fear mongers give it a rest
Advanced capitalism has created a vast gap between haves and have nots. Society is in decay, just like ancient Roman times. The poor get poorer and rich get richer. Poverty and lingering systemic socio economic issues have consequences. Can’t ignore it forever. There are going to be hard ramifications. It’s a pay to play country. You wonder why crime happens?
