After a string of at least 14 armed robberies targeting families of Asian descent in South Seattle, Seattle Police are now speaking out about the investigation and warning community members about the disturbing trend.
. In that video, two people run up behind him wearing masks, one pointing a gun and the other shooting a stun gun. They steal the man's wallet, jewelry, car keys and his phone. They also try to take his rings off his fingers, but they are stuck, so it takes them several tries before it finally works. The robbery happens in broad daylight. A south Seattle man was tased by two masked men, who robbed him of anything of value he had on him at the time.
"It’s a group of three to seven Black males in their teens. They are armed and they are targeting elderly Asians within our communities within the south precinct," said officer Judinna Gulpan with the Seattle Police Department. "They are accosting these victims outside their homes or forcing their way into their homes," said Gulpan.
"Hate crimes are targeted against people because of their ethnicity and this is more about people that they think are easy targets and that’s what we are finding so far," said Lt. John O’Neil with the Seattle Police Department.In one instance, the robbers held a gun to a 10-year-old's head and forced the child to show them where the valuables were in the home. In some cases, there was a 15 to 20-minute delay in reporting the crimes due to a language barrier.
