🚨 Seattle community safety alert 🚨
Vigilante threats made against people living in vehicles in West Seattle:
"We are disgusted and extremely alarmed, yet unfortunately not surprised to learn that somebody in the Puget Ridge neighborhood is threatening violence against our friends living in vehicles. They received this letter tonight, delivered anonymously by the coward who authored it.
We have been asked by our friends to help call attention to this, hoping that putting a spotlight on this will grant them some small level of protection should the author of this letter attack them or their homes. Our support for them does not end at sounding the alarm however for we are ready and willing to do whatever is required of us to keep our friends and neighbors facing these threats safe.
We call on all people of West Seattle and beyond to take a stand against these threats."
