At least 13 arrested as Seattle police retake control of the East Precinct
King5 ^ | 07 01 2020 | Staff

The Seattle Police Department (SPD) moved into the "Capitol Hill Organized Protest" (CHOP) zone and returned to the department's East Precinct early Wednesday morning.

The precinct was evacuated on June 11.

Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan issued a 48-hour executive order for protestors to vacate the area due to the ongoing violence and public safety issues in the area of the East Precinct and Cal Anderson Park. Mayor Durkan's order declared the gathering as an “unlawful assembly” that required immediate action.

Police moved into the CHOP just before 5 a.m. and issued a dispersal order to any protestors in the area. Police tweeted at 5:20 a.m. that 10 people had been arrested. Another tweet at 5:30 a.m. said three other people were arrested at 12th and Pike.

"Anyone who remains in the area, or returns to the area, is subject to arrest," SPD tweeted.

Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best said during a press conference Wednesday morning that officers searched the East Precinct to make sure there “weren’t any obstacles or any other concerns in the building.”

Chief Best said officers cleared the building, but haven’t moved into the precinct at this time.

Chief Best said SPD would start operations at the precinct “as soon as we reasonably can.”

She definitely made a deal with nation media not to cover her 5am raid.

Leave or be arrested means if you walk away, you get away with it... There will be no repercussions.

I am so sick of this nonsense.

No doubt the cops will find all the ATMs, bank vaults and safes in the area intact and untouched. Yea right. Police should have been checking the backpacks of anyone leaving the area. By now the thugs have picked it clean and want to move on. They made clever use of the “protesters” and the dopey mayor.

and yet the Commies use the Hong Kong police arrest more than 300 protesting China's 'birthday gift' of national security law...................

Remember with Communists you only need to vote once, voted in Commies never need to be reelected!
