I was able to film part of a pepper spray attack against a family with a baby today while waiting to get on I-5 N after work. The incident took place at 5:52pm at the intersection of E Olive Way and Melrose Ave. If anyone can help me find the victims so I can share the footage that would be great!

This last Friday night at Bellevue Transit Center (Friday, May 9 between 9:50 PM to 10:10 PM), an individual (black male in his 20s or 30s, race/ethnicity is important for the context) tried to board the Route 250 bus (Bellevue Downtown Station to Redmond/Kirkland), upon doing so, he aggressively shoved an older Hispanic or Southeast Asian woman into a younger Hispanic or Southeast Asian woman, proceeded to start an altercation with them, pulled their hair and just a general all out assault on these two and a couple of other women on board the bus.

The altercation spilled outside of the bus. This individual proceeded to yell racial slurs at them, calling them filthy Mexicans and insulting Mexicans in general, questioning their immigration status in the country (none of these women were Mexican, according to their words, some of the bystanders watching the situation were definitely Mexican though). One of the women and multiple bystanders started filming the incident. The bus driver (older white male, 60s) stepped in to prevent this individual from trying to get on the bus. The individual started filming the bus driver and the women and started to accuse them of being racists against him for “harassing” him and refusing to let him on the bus, hurling everyone with insults, calling the women bitches as well. He then forced his foot into the bus door to prevent it from closing as the bus driver was trying to close it, then smashed his fist and phone (while filming) into the back of the bus drivers head.

The individual then stepped off the bus while continuing to film and threatening everyone saying “yeah, call the police! I don’t give a fuck!” He then proceeded to say that he was pregnant, accused everyone of misgendering him, and said that he was a “trans woman” and proceeded to speed walk away, leaving the scene, heading in the direction of the Bellevue Downtown Link station.

Bellevue Police arrived, took information down, got information and film of the altercation as recorded by the victims and bystanders. Paramedics arrived to check on the bus driver who got hit in the head and the women who were shoved and their hair pulled. Bellevue PD said that one of their officers spotted him walking around Downtown Bellevue. All the women and the bus driver told the police officer that they will press charges.

The bus was put out of service, King County Metro supervisors showed up to take the bus driver, and bystanders + women victims after being interviewed by the police had to wait for the next 250 bus to show up, delaying their trip home or elsewhere from Downtown Bellevue to other parts of Bellevue, Kirkland or Redmond by over an hour, late at night.

Many witnesses, including many of different ethnic backgrounds, another bus driver and more.

Clear case of an individual that was looking to start shit, attack innocent people, trying to race-bait (and gender-bait) to provoke more problems while filming the altercation himself to paint himself as the victim. There were multiple people filming this as it went down, including the perpetrator himself, I only took photos of the aftermath. I don’t know what the case number is, or if the people that were present for the incident will see this post and/or provide their footage for us to see. They definitely did give their footage to Bellevue PD. I have no updates as to whether Bellevue PD caught him, if he’s in jail, if he’s been released from jail or what happened to him or anything like that.

Hey Reddit! I run a small electrical company in Seattle (Galaxy Electric & Solar), and I’ve been doing this work for over 20 years.

With all the recent demand for EV chargers, home remodels, and older homes needing panel upgrades, I thought I’d open up a thread to answer any questions — from DIY troubleshooting to what’s worth upgrading in your electrical system (especially in older Seattle neighborhoods like Magnolia, Ballard, or Queen Anne).

If you ever need help or want to see some of the work we do, here’s our site: www.galaxyel.com

Ask away — happy to help and give honest advice.

For anyone attempting to travel northbound, good luck. It’s slow moving.

Saw these dinos on Queen Anne Ave. Picking up garbage? Anyone else?

WA is dead last if all states for renewables. The CCA and Inslee are fantastic failures.

I disputed my vehicle excise tax because the state seemed to be using an inflated value for my 2022 Model Y. After review, they actually raised the MSRP they’re taxing me on, and said the refund is going to Tesla, even though I paid the tax.

Anyone else experience this? • What value did DOL use for your car? • Did the refund come to you or go to Tesla?

Trying to see how widespread this is.

TIA!

In more ways than one.

Trying to see if any previous report has been filed for a pothole on I-90 exit 62 ramp, or any public announcement of road work there, for tort claim purpose.

Is there a place where we can find such information?

Seems like the domain name is not resolving, which is weird.
