People who destroy property in Seattle will be arrested under a tighter policy coordinated between the Seattle Police Department and Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes, police said.
The tighter policy will be enacted Saturday, Seattle Interim Police Chief Adrian Diaz announced ahead of a scheduled demonstration in Seattle's Occidental Park.
The new policy comes after police reported several buildings were vandalized in downtown Seattle Wednesday night, including the city's federal courthouse.
"The events of breaking windows at a variety of different locations with no meaning," Diaz said. "There was no discussion about what they were fighting for, what type of social justice message. That cannot happen. That level of direct action cannot occur. And we are going to immediately address those issues."
The chief added that he has "been in conversations" with Holmes who will now prosecute those cases.
The department posted photos on Twitter of "multiple windows" shattered at the William Kenzo Nakamura US Courthouse, used primarily by the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals.
CNN affiliate KOMO reported the group burned an American flag and threw objects in the streets to block the path of motorists. Several vehicles were damaged before police ordered the group to disperse, KOMO reported.

Hopefully they’ll be at it again...and if so, I may join them.
“The low IQ antifa members have to be a it confused at the moment, trying to figure out why all the local governments are suddenly acting like they are a bunch of riotous criminals, instead of righteous social justice warriors.”
The election-theft is over, so the distraction/destruction of ANTIFA is no longer of benefit to the democrats. Sadly for ANTIFA, they won’t even get to sleep in the wet spot, they just need to leave now and never come back.
Unless of course the Dems need another pre-election booty call with them again in 2022...
It’s all about priorities.
