A report released last night by a Seattle news station and KING 5 and journalist Chris Ingalls analyzed nearly 100 arrest records related to the Seattle Black Lives Matter riots.
Of 95 cases obtained from public records requests and through court filings, KING 5 found, 48% of suspects are white, 18% of suspects are black, and 28% of cases race was undetermined or not listed. Only 32% of suspects listed Seattle as their hometown.
Leftist activists stormed the news station yesterday for reporting on public arrest records related to the riots as the activists claimed that reporting on their arrests was “doxxing.”
The responding police officers arrested at least one member of the mob according to The Post Millennial.

The King 5 article highlighted cases like Kelly Jackson, a young, white suburbanite who lives in Edmonds and was charged by federal prosecutors with tossing Molotov cocktails into Seattle police vehicles in late May. They noted that he was fired from his job as a plumber’s assistant after his arrest.
One person who was not white, Desmond David-Pitts, was accused of setting fire to the east police precinct, flew in from Alaska days after he protested Anchorage police who shot and killed his brother, 16-year-old Lufilufilimalelei “Daelyn” Polu.
Polu was shot and killed during a traffic stop in February and the officers said Polu fired on them before they used their weapons, and one of the officers was hit and injured.
