LYNNWOOD, WA (April 25, 2020) - Just after 11:30 Saturday morning our 911 dispatchers received a call about a man who had attempted to strike a woman's vehicle and then the woman herself at the 76 gas station located at the corner of 196th St SW and Highway 99 in Lynnwood. The woman said the man-- who was a stranger to her-- was yelling profanities.
Our officers contacted the suspect in his vehicle in the the nearby JoAnn Fabric's parking lot. He refused to get out of his van and instead drove off, hitting one of our officers with his door and smashing into the front end of another one of our sergeant's vehicles.
Our officers engaged in a short pursuit southbound on Highway 99 which ended in a strip mall parking lot in the 22300 block with several police vehicles pinning in the suspect's van.
Although two police vehicles as well as the suspect's vehicle were damaged in this incident, no one-- including the officer struck by the suspect's door-- was injured.
The 46-year-old Seattle man was arrested on suspicion of Assault 3, Eluding, Hit and Run, Reckless Driving, and Malicious Mischief.
