At around 9:15 p.m. last night, Tuesday, October 20, police responded to a call involving a fight between residents of an apartment building in the 1000 block of W. Nickerson St.
According to the report, the suspect, who was intoxicated, punched the victim in the face. The victim then punched the suspect back, when the suspect pulled out a folding knife and proceeded to chase the victim with it, threatening to kill him and his family while they slept.
The victim eventually drew a hand gun, causing the suspect to stop chasing and threatening him with the knife. Officers then arrived and arrested the suspect, who spit at one officer’s face and kicked the other in the thigh while he was handcuffed and being escorted to the patrol car.
No one was injured. The suspect was booked into King County Jail and is currently under investigation of assault.

Ah, the classic mistake of bringing a knife to a gunfight.
