A Frustrated Community
Another drug overdose in Seattle’s Chinatown-ID just minutes from the FIFA World Cup watch party at Hing Hay Park.
I did my usual rounds at 12th Ave & Jackson St where first responders revived the fentanyl addict.
As frustrated neighbors stepped around the unconscious man, an entitled junkie got in my face and tried to stop me from recording.
Thank God an SPD officer broke things up before the situation escalated.
Then a neighbor getting off the bus yelled, “stop rescuing him, he’s just going to OD down the street.”
The frustration is palpable. CID is a powder keg about to explode.
Meanwhile, socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson is MIA.
