WEST SEATTLE CRIME WATCH: Suspect arrested after business burglary; package thief

Two incidents, including one unfolding right now:

BUSINESS BURGLARY: Police were called to West Seattle Smoke Company in The Junction about half an hour because of a broken window; security video showed the shop had been burglarized and showed the burglar leaving on foot. Right now they’re questioning a suspect, a man who was reported to 911 for showing up at a Morgan Junction business with bloody hands. No word yet on what was taken from the shop, but video there showed the burglar carrying two bags when he left. (Tuesday update: The suspect was arrested.)

PACKAGE THIEF: Kevin sent the video:

He says the person in the video “was casing cars and stealing packages along Beach Dr SW just south of Jacobsen=(Friday) around 10:20 am.”

    Package stealing from porches is an ongoing problem and these degenerates are unlikely to be caught or stop. It’s always best to have your packages delivered to a nearby secure locker, like the ones at several grocery stores, especially if it is anything valuable. Or pick up at a nearby package center.
