A resident found a smoldering planter and doused it with water earlier that morning. The fire did not cause damage to any of the housing structures and was isolated to a planter near the playground. The witness saw four juveniles around the fire when he or she extinguished it. Police did not know how the fire started but noted it was likely caused by fireworks that someone set off the night before.

Neighbor upset over ‘spying’ drone: At 3:36 p.m. on May 31 in the 2400 block of S. 298th St., police responded to a report of a harassment. The resident said his neighbor was flying his drone around his home. He stated the drone hovered outside of his windows and he believed his neighbor was spying on him.

The neighbor told police he flies his drone over his neighbor’s house when it takes off, but he did not intentionally cause the aircraft to hover around his neighbor’s house. The responding police officer watched the drone owner’s video footage and it did not show the drone hovering around the resident’s house. Police advised the neighbor to avoid flying the drone near his neighbor’s house, or it could be construed as harassment.

Man runs head-on into oncoming traffic: At 4:25 p.m. on May 31 at 32000 Pacific Highway S., a police officer observed a man walking in the intersection of South 312th Street and Pacific Highway South, with no regard for oncoming traffic. The man told police he was being followed and continually looked over his shoulder.

He said he was going to get shot and stabbed, and kept asking police to arrest him or put him into a patrol car. He then ran head-on into oncoming traffic in both lanes with no regard to traffic. He asked police to shoot him. Police found suspected crystal meth on the man. Five police officers restrained the man and strapped him to a medical bed. Police seized the drugs and the man was involuntarily committed.

Robbers point gun at grandmother and infant: At 6:56 p.m. on May 31 in the 32000 block of 19th Lane SW, police were dispatched to the Retreat at Maple Hill Apartments for a report of a male seen running out of an apartment with a gun in his hand. Dispatch advised police that witnesses saw and heard five or six subjects in their early 20s yelling and screaming.

Dispatched also advised that several reporting parties could still hear the yelling, so police requested additional officers and a K-9 officer to respond to the scene to conduct a track for the suspects. However, the K-9 was later canceled when police learned the suspects left in a beige colored SUV.

The victim who lives in one of the apartment units told police he was packing his belongings and preparing to move out, when he observed a male at his front door, another male standing on the staircase outside of his unit and a third male on the landing at the top of the stairs. The victim said the males asked him if he had drugs to sell. He told them he does not sell drugs and they slowly left. The victim described one of the males as a black male between 15 to 18 years old, 5 feet 4 inches with a “chunky” build. The other male at the door was described as a black male between 15 to 18 years old, 6-feet 1-inch tall with a muscular build.

At approximately 6 p.m., the suspect with the chunky build returned with two different males. One of the other males was described as a black male with a large afro hairstyle, approximately 17 years old. The third male was described as a black male, about 6-feet 3-inches tall. The victim met the males at the bottom of the staircase outside his apartment unit and asked the group what they wanted. One of the males asked him, “Are you on that?” The victim believes they were referring to narcotics. He advised the suspects he was not on drugs and told the males to leave.

The chunky male, who was wearing gloves and a hooded sweatshirt, had a handgun in his sweatshirt pocket, according to the victim. The tall suspect, who appeared to get upset with the chunky suspect, took the gun from him and pointed the gun at the victim and said, “Where’s the weed?”

The victim told the suspect he did not have any drugs. The tall suspect “shoulder checked” the victim and the three suspects ran up the stairs into his apartment unit. The victim followed the suspects because he was concerned for his grandmother and his 5-month-old infant. Inside the apartment, the suspects searched the victim’s property. The tall suspect was upset and yelled, “Where’s it at?” He pointed the gun at the victim twice and also pointed the handgun at the victim’s grandmother and infant, the victim told police. He was scared the suspect would shoot him and his family. The grandmother yelled “police” and the suspects ran out of the apartment. The victim then left to check on his girlfriend, who was in the parking lot packing their belongings.

The girlfriend later told police that the suspects had come by the residence that morning and knocked on the front door. One of the males asked for the girlfriend’s friend’s boyfriend. The friend and boyfriend recently had trouble with a gang calling themselves “TNL.”  The problems have been mainly over social media drama, the girlfriend told police. Her friend and the friend’s boyfriend recently lived at the apartment.

Police noted there is probable cause to believe the suspects committed attempted robbery and first-degree assault. Police are still investigating this case.

Teen arrested for threatening to shoot store employees: At 10:05 p.m. on May 31 at 34520 16th Ave. S., a 14-year-old juvenile from Seattle entered Walmart and a Loss Prevention officer observed him walking fast.

The suspect walked out of the store less than five minutes later.

Two Loss Prevention officers identified themselves to the suspect, who ran away from them through the parking lot southbound. The juvenile appeared to get tired about half way through the parking lot and he put his hand down the front of his waist band and told the officers, “I’ll shoot! I’ll shoot!” The officers stopped and started to back away. The officers believed the suspect had a gun and feared for their safety.

The juvenile continued to jog through the parking lot and the Loss Prevention officers last observed him running toward Jack in the Box. Police arrested the 14-year-old, who said he did not have a gun and only threatened to shoot the Loss Prevention officers because he believed they were going to punch him. He was arrested for felony harassment and booked into King County Juvenile Detention.

Woman smashes fish tank, flees: At 11:23 a.m. on May 30 in the 31000 block of Third Place S., the victim invited an acquaintance over to cook food and wash clothes. The acquaintance went into the bathroom for a long time, so the victim went into the bathroom to check on her. He opened the bathroom door and caught the woman using drugs. The victim told the suspect to leave, at which point she became angry. She threw an object at the victim’s 55 gallon fish tank and shattered the glass. The woman fled the area prior to police arrival. The victim told police the suspect possibly resides at a battered women’s shelter.

Police arrest career criminal, find pistol: At 8:52 p.m. on May 29 at 27600 Pacific Highway S., officers stopped a driver for driving with dark tinted windows. Police used a tint meter to determine the windows were dark past the legal limit. Records indicated that the suspect was driving with a suspended license and was a potential armed career criminal. Police searched the vehicle and located a pistol under the passenger seat and found that it was stolen out of Tennessee. The suspect was booked into SCORE jail.

Man with knives arrested for imprisoning his wife: At 8:03 p.m. on May 29 at 1400 S. 320th St., police officers were at the Extended Stay America on an unrelated call, when they were advised that an in-progress order violation between a husband and wife was occurring at the same location on the third floor. Police went to the room and a woman who appeared distraught answered the door and said her husband was locked inside the bathroom. Police noted she had swelling around her mouth and that she repeated that her face and head hurt from her hair being pulled.

The woman told police that she and her husband dropped off their kids at a friend’s house and came back to the hotel where they’d been staying for a few days. An argument ensued when she told her husband she didn’t want to be with him anymore and that he needs mental health help. She said her husband became irate, cornered her in the room, pushed her up against a wall, covered her mouth and nose with his hand and restricted her breathing. He kept her cornered for about an hour-and-a-half. During this time, she continuously yelled for help and said her husband continued to assault her by pulling her hair.

She eventually convinced him to let her sit on the bed, at which point he pulled out a knife, put it to his wrist and said, “You are the reason our children are going to grow up without a father.” She tried to get up multiple times, but he pushed her back onto the bed and said, “You are going to watch me die.” She was able to retrieve her cell phone near the bed and texted her friend to call 911.

Police told the man he was under arrest and that he needed to exit the room with his hands up, however he did not respond to the commands until approximately 41 minutes later, when he was booked into SCORE jail. Police found eight knives belonging to the husband in the hotel room.
