M.reports “a man that has been frequenting splash parks, wading pools and just watching kids at parks for months if not longer. Today he was caught by a parent – self pleasuring at a High Point park and the police were called. He got away before they arrived but another parent, myself and the nearby school and community center all had information and photos of the man from previous encounters. He’s very aggressive and shouldn’t be approached. He was also seen flashing people in the community. … I’m writing to share his photo and car so that others are aware to call police If he’s spotted. Car – Honda – dark goldish color, dent in driver door. He’s removed his front plate recently.”

The photo is from a month ago; he had close-shaven dark hair. Today he was spotted at Walt Hundley Playfield and that’s when police were called; the SPD incident # is 25-288240.

12:48 AM: For the second time in three weeks, someone has shot at residential windows in a Harbor Avenue SW building. On September 10, it happened at The Residences across from Don Armeni Boat Ramp; this time, it happened at Harbor Flats, at the south end of Harbor by the West Seattle Bridge. Police rushed there after multiple calls about gunfire, including someone saying they had at least one damaged window, and the officers have told dispatch at least three units have bullet damage. They’re checking to be sure no one is injured. As for who did it, so far they’re telling dispatch a “white or gray” vehicle was seen heading onto the eastbound bridge after the gunfire.

1:04 PM: We requested and obtained the narrative from SPD:

On 10/02/2025, at 0041 hours, uniformed Seattle Police patrol officers responded to [3400 BLK] Harbor Ave SW to investigate a report of shots fired.

When officers arrived on scene they discovered three separate apartment units, specifically their windows, had been struck by gunfire and were damaged. Officers also were flagged down by a victim and witness, identified as XXXX VICTIM 2.

VICTIM 2 told officers he had heard two separate series of gun shots. When he first heard the first set he had looked out his window and saw a light colored gray sedan (possibly a Honda) driving northbound and shooting at an unknown individual who running southbound on Harbor Ave SW, on the east side of the street. As that individual was running he was also firing a gun, specifically at the gray vehicle. The subject on foot ran towards Harbor Ave SW/SW Spokane St. VICTIM 2 advised his window, apartment XXX, had been hit by one of the stray rounds. He also was not injured.

Officers checked the building and observed damage to VICTIM 2’s window and two other separate windows of the apartment building. Officers checked the building and conducted knock and talks, attempting to identify any victims. Officers contacted XXXX VICTIM 1, who lived on the fourth floor, in unit XXX. VICTIM 1 told officers he was sitting on his bed, when suddenly a gunshot broke his window and hit his air conditioning unit. He became immediately afraid for his safety and ran into his closet and hid. He did not see who shot at him and advised he did not think he was a target. He also reported he was not injured.

Officers examined his window and the damaged AC unit, and observed the flight path of the projectile was consistent with coming from the ground level and in an upwards direction. The window had a impact point shatter pattern on the lower right side. In line with that impact point was damage on the AC unit that appeared to be an entry point. At the top of the AC unit was a small hole that appeared to be the exit point, and again was in line (at about a [45] degree angle) with the entry point on the AC and impact point the window.

Officers conducted a knock and talk on the adjacent units that were also struck, units XXX and XXX, but officers discovered they were vacant with no tenants. Officers also checked the units that were beneath that had also been hit, units XXX and XXX, but also discovered they were vacant.

Officers checked the area and discovered two separate sets of spent shell casings on the ground, on the east side of Harbor Ave SW, supporting VICTIM 2’s observation that the subject who he saw running southbound on Harbor Ave SW was firing a gun. The first set of spent shell casings was on the side walk, in front of [3400 BLK] Harbor Ave SW and the second set was located on the ground, in front of [3400 BLK] Harbor Ave SW. Officers located XXXX XXXX a total of 11 spent shell casings. Officers photographed XXXX XXXX the shell casings XXXX XXXX. Also, during the investigation officers discovered that there were cameras at [3400 BLK] and [3400 BLK] Harbor Ave SW, pointing directly where the incident occurred. VICTIM 2 advised officers he knows the owner and would contact them for camera footage. VICTIM 2 was provided an AXON link for any photos and video evidence.

Additionally, one of the 911 callers reported seeing the suspect on foot get into a white unknown model Tesla, which then fled eastbound on the West Seattle bridge. The caller XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX license plate, and when officers checked the scene they did not locate the vehicle and or any related evidence around the intersection.
