WEST SEATTLE CRIME WATCH: Cold as ice

From Olga:

Tonight, around 9 pm, someone threw a chunk of ice (around 1 ft in diameter) at our car parked in Genesee. The ice went all the way through the car, smashing the back window and damaging the back door, and landed in front of the passenger seat.

We heard the crash and the sound of a car taking off west on SW Dakota St. This is the second time we’ve had this kind of vandalism – it was a rock the first time.

SIDE NOTE: The West Seattle Crime Prevention Council is scheduled to resume meeting this month – save the date/time to bring your neighborhood concerns, 7 pm Tuesday, January 17th, at the Southwest Precinct 2300 SW Webster).

    Second time?!?  Sounds like you are being targeted by someone…

    There are individuals that think it’s fun to do this.  I had a root beer bottle thrown through the back window of a car I used to have, $500+ in damage.

    That’s awful and shameful. I’m so sorry this happened to you.

    Do you have any known enemies?

    Doesn’t seem random.

      It typically is random, when my car window was busted by the bottle, my wife had parked my car in front of her friends house that we never park in front of.  They heard a crash, went outside and saw the broken glass all over the place.  It’s a senseless act of idiocy and I believe in karma so they’ll get theirs ten fold.

    That would be a pretty hefty item to hurl….watch for anything inside after it has melted. Could it have come off an airplane?

    At 46th and Andover today, which is close to the original incident, I saw the back window of a car smashed out, with a huge chunk of ice on the pavement next to it.  Don’t think any one person is being targeted.

Sorry, comment time is over.
