A disturbing road-rage felony assault happened on Thursday, Nov. 2, 2023 at around 5:30 p.m. in front of Genesee Hill Elementary in West Seattle, and the public’s help is needed.

“A family member was violently assaulted in a road-rage incident by the driver of this silver Chevrolet Silverado pickup,” a victim who wished to remain anonymous told us.

The Silverado is distinctive in that it is missing the entire rear bumper and has no license plate displayed anywhere. There is also body damage under the taillight on the drivers side.

“We think it is likely a 2002-2006 Silverado. Also note one-piece rear windshield – no sliding window.”

Fortunately several people were walking dogs or in their yards and helped stop the assault. The driver sped away and despite a very fast Seattle Police response, has not yet been caught.

As you drive around the city we ask that you please keep an eye out so we can find and charge this dangerous man.

SPD asks anyone who sees the vehicle should call 911 and reference Incident # 23-317784. If it’s not a “seeing it now” tip, you can also call the SPD violent-crimes tip line at 206-233-5000.
