Tukwila police are searching for the person responsible for slashing the tires of several cars along East Marginal Way South overnight Wednesday. Seven cars were targeted outside a donut-making facility.
"It really is crazy,” Mighty-O Donuts manager Lokahi Dorr-Fay said.
Police said someone went on a tire-slashing spree late Wednesday night. The most recent incident occurred off South 126th Street.
"It's really shocking that someone took the time and effort to slash all four tires on seven different vehicles,” Dorr-Fay said.
Six employees had to deal with flat tires. The business' delivery van was also hit.
"None of our locations were able to open with donuts this morning,” Dorr-Fay said. Managers had to hand-deliver donuts to stores to fulfill their orders.
Tukwila police say someone went to not just this business, but up and down East Marginal Way South.
"It's hard to comprehend why someone would do something like this,” Dorr-Kay said.
Mighty-O Donuts has surveillance cameras, but employees say it’s been a struggle to spot anything that can help police.
"Whoever did this also walked down here and also broke the hatch to our fence,” Dorr-Kay said.
Employees said the suspect didn’t appear to steal anything, and only seemed to care about doing damage. Police said they will beef up patrols in the area.
If anyone witnessed or has any surveillance of the suspect damaging vehicles in the area, police ask you to email tips@tukwilawa.gov or upload footage directly to this evidence portal.
