We think we’re plugged into what’s going on around the neighborhood, then a new blog, the SeattleCrime.com Blog, turns up with this detailed account of misdeeds two weekends ago at Serena’s Guadalajara:
When Seattle police showed up to a Wallingford bar last weekend to deal with a large fight—involving as many as 15 people, a police report says—they made a few arrests. But rather than arresting a dozen patrons, police ended up taking in the bar’s manager and an armed bouncer.
Just after midnight on Saturday, officers arrived at the Guadajara bar on Wallingford Ave and N. 45th Street, and spotted a man standing outside of the club wearing a black t-shirt and shoulder patch identifying him as a police officer. The man was also carrying a pair of handcuffs, two clips of ammunition and a loaded handgun, holstered on his hip.
Police were so convinced by the man’s attire that they asked him if he was a cop. The man told police he was in fact a bouncer at the club, and had been checking IDs when a fight broke out.
