A former Microsoft technologist is behind bars after he plowed his car into a crowded Washington State supermarket on Friday night after alleging that he's being pursued by a murderous satanic cult.
After crashing his car into the front of the Fred Meyer store in Everett 50 miles north of Seattle, Ronald Lewis, 57, covered himself in gasoline, police said.
Lewis then sat in his car as responding officers tried to negotiate his surrender. That's when his car caught fire.
Miraculously, Lewis escaped his car with very minor injuries. Although no official statement has been made by police regarding his motives, Lewis car had the message: 'Satanic Panic' scrolled at least twice on his car.
In the weeks leading up to the incident, Lewis alleged in multiple Facebook posts that his life was being threatened by a murderous satanic cult.

The outlet reports that Lewis told officers that he was trying to get the attention of the FBI because he wanted to talk to them about 'satanic stalking he believed he was experiencing.'
In addition to cans of gasoline, Lewis also had a propane can with him at the time of the crash.

Earlier this month, the manager of the Fred Meyer store in question, Tyler Stumpf, told a local city council meeting that he needed more help from law enforcement in keeping his store safe, reports the Everett Herald.
Stumpf said that the outside of his store had become an open air drug market with addicts regularly using his bathroom to use narcotics. In one particular incident, Stumpf said that a man brandishing two knives was spotted in the parking lot.
The manager said that local police never responded to the scene despite being called.

Seems a psych evaluation is in order...
MAGA TDS?
was he every TDY’d to twitter?
The Holidays can be very hard on mental health.
Most people handle getting mail from their prior employer better. But then again, it is Microsoft.
What a crock. If you want to get the FBI’s attention use photoshop to place yourself in some J6 photos.
Sounds like a schizophrenic. Nowadays some of them get together online and convince each other that they are not actually schizophrenic, but that they really are being “gang stalked” by random strangers for no apparent reason.
Most geniuses suffer insanity later in life. Some of us are able to cope and do not go stark-raving mad! ;-)
I like how they interject something they want to enhance the story with into the headline that has nothing to do with the story, for propaganda effect like former microsoft programmer or Trump supporter or former soldier served in afghanistan etc etc
“That’s when his car caught fire.”
A Tesla? ;)
... and you think your relatives are crazy.
“...alleging that he’s being pursued by a murderous satanic cult.”
Is he thinking that this is the same folks who’ve been after those accident-prone Russian acquaintances of Putin?
I hear you.
Perp: I'm gonna blow this place up!
Cobra: That's ok. I don't shop here.
WTF is a technologist? I was a EE for 30 years and never heard the term. I love how media people invent new words and then expect people to understand wth they are talking about.
“...after alleging that he’s being pursued by a murderous satanic cult”
These days, who isn’t being pursued by a murderous satanic cult?
What a coincidence he should mention the FBI, I wouldn’t be surprised if the “Satanic Cult” was actually the FBI trying to groom him up for another boston bombing, vegas massacre or sandy hook event like they are known to do.

Cobra is one of those guilty pleasures. Stupid movie, crappy acting, car chases (50 Merc led sled) and shoot 'em ups.
