From the Blotter: Parking Lot Assault and a Bad Reaction to Cocaine and Wine

Posted by on Thu, Nov 19, 2009 at 11:48 AM

The SPD reports that a man was assaulted and robbed downtown this morning at 2:30 a.m. as he was returning to his hotel room:

The victim stated that he walked through a parking lot somewhere in the area of 1st & Pike when he was attacked by 3 males. The victim stated that he didn’t see much of their faces as one of them hit him with a baseball bat. One of the suspects tried to take the victim’s cell phone but the victim was able to kick the suspect in the face.

The suspects then fled with the victims’ wallet. Approx. 20 minutes later, the victim was observed by a citizen and the citizen called police and fire. The victim was transported to Harborview Medical Center for treatment.

Another man, arrested at 6:35 a.m., was apparently intoxicated as he allegedly tried to burgle a business in the Central District:

Upon officers arrival witnesses reported that a male suspect left the store via a broken window, carrying merchandise. A description of the suspect was broadcast over SPD radio and within minutes an officer located the suspect running near 15th Av and Spring St.

The suspect was arrested and taken into custody without incident. The suspect was positively identified by 2 witnesses. The suspect was then transported to Harborview Medical Center as he was having an adverse reaction to taking too much cocaine and wine. All the stolen property was recovered.

In the eyes of the police, I can't help but wonder, what is an "adverse reaction to taking too much cocaine and wine"? Maybe one man's adverse reaction is another man's desired effect.

"an adverse reaction to taking too much cocaine and wine"

This is a polite way of saying he was fucked out of his gourd on crack and Night Train. Then again, maybe he was a local executive who drank a bunch of Lafite-Rothschild and snorted a big pile of blow off of a call girl's buttcheeks.

An adverse reaction to taking too much cocaine and wine results from partying like a rock star all night, but capping it off in the back of a police car. Talk about a buzz kill.

The anxiety of being busted, plus a bloodstream full of blow and sulfates—dude probably felt like he was having a heart attack.

Any reaction that gets the police involved is, by definition, adverse.
