Over the weekend of July 12-13 a realtor showing a home
along Bothell Way, Bothell, had to blockade herself from an attacker who hid in
the house. The realtor found the man hiding on the third floor as she was
closing up the house.
The realtor ran into a bathroom and locked the door. While
the man beat on the door, she called 911. The man left the house when he heard
the realtor talking to 911.
Note: This incident is unfortunately a reminder that even
professionals like real estate agents can have risks in their jobs. Most of the
time an open house does not bring excitement like this incident did. However,
being prepared for such eventualities is not a bad idea. The real estate agent
took the right actions. She protected herself by running to the bathroom and
locking the door. She got help from police by calling 911.
You can help by being observant as you look for suspicious
activity around you. Call 911 whenever you see suspicious activity in your
neighborhood.
If you
recognize the individual in this police sketch, please call the Bothell Police Department
at (425) 487-5551.
