Police ask help in finding assault suspects

Two veterans of the Iraq war were among those savagely beaten recently in Pioneer Square by a group of men.

Now, Seattle police are looking for the attackers. On Wednesday, they released a videotape of the attack filmed by a witness and still photos captured from the tape.

"We are hoping the public can offer some assistance," police spokesman Sean Whitcomb said.

The assault happened just past 2:30 a.m. on July 31, police reported.

A group of people were in line to enter Larry's Nightclub on First Avenue South when a man groped one of the women in the group.

Her friend, another woman, confronted the man, and he groped her as well.

Yeah it was posted. What are you trying to do? Make some kind of big deal out of this --like Rodney King or something? If so -- Fat Chance (wrong demographics involved.)

Yeah, the local television news stations have been playing the video clip since yesterday afternoon.

These gangstas need to do hard time.

Posted and pulled.

We'll see how it goes today!

And from what I read on the thread last night, the fact that these guys are vets had nothing to do with what motivated these monsters to beat them half to death. The thugs got "dissed", that's all.

I don't care if it gets posted 100 times if it will help in even the smallest way to get the SOBs that did this!

Hope they catch them. It could have been any one of us regardless of being in the service. Punks like this simply do not care who gets in their way.

I'm not the mod, the spelling cop, or the thread police, but one of the main reasons for duplicate threads is modifying headlines, as you have done.

Is Washington one of those states that disarm the law-abiders?

The thugs got "dissed",

Yeah - the thug was groping one of the ladies that came with the vets - she didn't appreciate it.

That is enough dissing for them - she did throw a hot dog at the (muslim?) pig.
