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.

“WTF is a technologist? I was a EE for 30 years and never heard the term.”
I’ve only been hearing it since the late 90s or so.
He worked for Microsoft from 1990-98. He hasn’t been with them for a LONG time.
Multiple Covid vaxxxxes drive some people crazy. He might be a clot shot victim.
A Tesla? ;)
Actually he was driving a Yugo. Post divorce, it was all he could afford
“Seems a psych evaluation is in order...”

Normally, that would be my first thought as well. But nowadays, there is a possibility that he is telling the truth. Maybe he knows something that the “powers that be” do not want disclosed. Maybe some cult IS actually after him! Of course, trying to get that information to the FBI might be the wrong move. They could be part of that cult.
Or, as you said, a psych evaluation might be a good idea.
I used to live in that liberal sh!thole of a city. Not surprised in the least by this.
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.
Hmm, you could be right. I would suggest the Everett school system tighten security.
