SEATTLE — Seattle police officers reportedly arrested an armed felon and his accomplice during a narcotics operation in Seattle’s Capitol Hill this week.
At around 3:15 p.m. on Thursday, officers allegedly saw a 31-year-old man selling drugs to several people near Broadway East and East Olive Way, an area designated as “SODA Zone 4.”
According to the police report, officers also saw a 20-year-old woman accepting cash in exchange for the drugs.
Seattle police say officers arrested the two suspects without incident, and recovered:
- 10.3g of Fentanyl
- $455 Cash
- Scale, plastic baggies
- Handgun
Police also report that the man was armed with a gun and had a $10,000 felony narcotics warrant out for his arrest. His previous felony convictions for Drive-by Shooting and Assault prohibit him from having firearms.
Police booked him into the King County Jail for Sale and Delivery of Synthetic Narcotics and Unlawful Possession of a Firearm.
Officers investigated and released the woman.
