Bodycam video shows Seattle police arrest armed man on scooter in South Lake Union

Newly released bodycam video shows Seattle police arresting an armed man while attempting to serve a felony warrant in the South Lake Union neighborhood last month.

Police said on June 15 at around 8:23 p.m., patrol officers located a 30-year-old felony warrant suspect on a scooter in the 200 block of Yale Avenue N. The suspect then "intentionally" fled from officer vehicles, according to police.

Officers gave the man multiple commands, yelling at him to stop, but he ignored them, police said. Shortly after, officers exited their vehicle and chased the man on foot. While running away, police said the man crashed the scooter and was taken into custody.

After searching the man, police were then able to recover a loaded handgun, $800 in cash, and fentanyl on the man shortly after the incident.

The 30-year-old man was booked into the King County jail for unlawful possession of a firearm, possession of narcotics, and obstructing a police officer.
