According to the Seattle Police Department crime blotter a man was robbed at Seattle Center at approximately 1:45 a.m. this morning, Monday, January 11. The 18-year-old victim was reportedly walking through the Seattle Center grounds listening to his iPod when two suspects approached him from behind. The victim was unaware of the suspects until one removed his headphones and took the iPod from his pocket. The report says that one of the suspects, with his hand in his pocket, stated he had a gun (though the victim never saw it), then both suspects took other personal items from the victim before fleeing on foot. After they left the victim called his father, who picked up his son and drove him around the area until he spotted the two suspects. The victim’s father then called police, who located the two suspects in the 300 block of 5th Ave N and retrieved some, but not all, of the victim’s property, according to the report. The victim positively identified the two suspects, ages 18 and 19, who were then arrested and booked into King County Jail for investigation of robbery and outstanding warrants.
