NATIONAL GUARD TIME? This is now the third weekend in a row I've been out to the downtown #Seattle core since Mayor Bruce Harrell(@MayorofSeattle) announced his Downtown Activation Plan and signed the Executive Order to address the fentanyl crisis.
HOT SPOTS:
3rd Ave & Pike… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
IS THIS THE MOST DANGEROUS CROSS STREET IN #SEATTLE? 3rd Ave & Cherry St in downtown is just one block from City Hall. More "trap tents" for drug use and dealing have been set up by the same folks. City sweeps, they keep coming back. No end in sight.
IT'S A FREE FOR ALL: Weekends are the worst in #Chinatown-ID. It's a marginalized neighborhood dealing with an out of control drug scene at 12th Ave & Jackson St that's come roaring back. But the black market of stolen goods is the real draw. #Seattle
DRAIN ON CITY: The drug addicts congregate around Westlake Park and steal power from the light posts. Watch how they by-pass the outlet covers. Might be time to get a new lock system. LOL. @SeattleParks @SeattleShines
@SeattleParks @SeattleShines OVERDOSE AFTER OVERDOSE: I always check on people if they are doing the "fentanyl fold" or just slumped over. This woman was totally knocked out in downtown #Seattle before first responders showed up.
@SeattleParks @SeattleShines TARGETED AGAIN: Dude came up from behind me and landed a sucker punch. Then he launched a bicycle in my direction. This is a new one. LOL. Some drug addicts and dealers do not want to be exposed. #Seattle
