West Seattle crime watch: Previous peeper sighting

| Crime | West Seattle news

After yesterday’s report about one “peeper” reported in two West Seattle neighborhoods last Saturday night, this e-mail came in from WSB reader “L”:

I am a resident from the Andover/46th block. After reading and hearing about the peeper from this past weekend I was reminded of my own experience this past August 14th. I was awakened in the early morning hours, 1:30 – 2:30, by a strange noise and when I went to investigate saw a man standing at my sliding glass door. I called 911 and the police arrived and searched our yard but found no traces of the man. I was alarmed last night to find that these peeper reports are in close proximity to our address. Hopefully the police are taking notice and patrolling our neighborhood a bit more often than normal.

We are working on obtaining more information about last weekend’s incidents and will of course report whatever we find out.

I have a friend that had a similar experience, around August I believe. She lives just south of the junction. She called the cops and the guy was no where to be found by the time they got there.

Time for our neighborhood watch to be on high alert!

Just wanted to mention about the Citywide Advisory Council meeting December 11 with SPD as mentioned in a previous posting on WSB:

You can voice your concerns about community policing.

I’ve got the first $20 to the person that gets this peeper off our streets by any means possible. Money can be used for legal defense fund if necessary (if you happen to take his head off I hear you should be sure to drag the body into the house) or a happy hour snack at a junction restaurant. . . . . . of course I would never officially condone an illegal assault – in writing.

Sorry, comment time is over.
