A wannabe lawmaker running on platforms of anti-crime and aiding small businesses has been accused of shoplifting - by a hardware store owner who has footage of the alleged theft.
A candidate for Seattle's Federal Way City Council, Denise Yun is seen pulling hammers from a shelf at Trinity Ace Hardware on Pacific Highway South in the footage, which was filmed July 18.
In the clip, Yun - a relatively unproven political newcomer who has pleaded guilty to stealing twice in the past - is seen knocking over store signage as she puts the hammers on top of her purse.
Moments later, as she pushes her cart away, the camera appears to show the the 58-year-old Democrat placing the hammers in her purse - before leaving after being confronted by the outraged owner.
Now in the hands of a city prosecutor, the footage has spurred a police investigation as well as a statement from Yun denying the legitimacy of the video.
The Democrat - who works as a nurse - claims it was purposely edited ahead of the city's upcoming election to hurt her chances, and that it shows her storming out not because she was confronted, but because she was met with a racist remark from the store owner. She has since vowed to move ahead with her campaign.

My question:
Why is a nurse stealing a hammer?
“Why is a nurse stealing a hammer?”
To check people’s reflexes?
See the pic? Medusa has nothing on her.
The Daily Mail deserves extra credit for assigning ace reporter Alex Hammer to write this story …
Dumber than a bag of hammers.
You hit the nail on the head!
I was thinking that too.
Federal Way is not Seattle as the article suggests. It, like seattle, is in King County.
The county judges who serve that area are very liberal .
I wonder if it was a ballpeen or claw hammer. I’m always curious about these things
Someone reportedly insinuated she was dumb as a bag of them. She was going to run an experiment to see if it was true.
This might have a Pelosi connection.
Democrats are EVIL and LAW-LESS!!
When all you have is a hammer ...
But you don’t have a hammer ...
The solution is to steal a hammer ...
And then say the solution to everything else is a nail ...
She figures if a pedophile can be president...
A pro-shoplifting Democrat...? Why would that hamper her getting votes from urban Democrats? Isn’t that what they’re for?
Just retroactive reparations, don’t ya know...
(Why is a nurse stealing a hammer?)
To get to the other side of the road 🛣️?
She prolly heard of Paul Pelosi being hammered in the back door, which aroused her, and she simply misinterpreted.
Proof that democrats only want to use law against their enemies and not themselves.
