This is serial killer behaviour and he will strike again if he is out. These guys cannot control themselves and the evil that drives them.

[civility]

If he was that brazen, then it wouldn't be too far of a leap to assume he's probably made someone disappear before

[firsttimeisawjupiter]

Tha girl must be traumatized. I wish her the very best and I hope she can recover mentally from this terrible situation.

[BeyondPC]

Ya'll better raid his home and known locations in case he already kidnapped someone else...

Incel, pickup truck, gun, zip ties, repellent to women...pleasei don't breed.

Zip ties are the newest go-to tool for murderers: incredibly easy to use and incredibly difficult to escape from. I've been hearing of LOTS of abductions using them. Disturbing.

You all have no problem of posting other criminals faces when they are of Hispanic or African American descent so why haven't you posted him??? 🤔

Unfortunately he will be released in no time garenteed this is king county Washington remember summer of love! Crime is out of control here in Washington thanks governor Inslee

That barista must be terrified. How could he drag her like that? And, didn't this creep realize he has a huge tattoo on his arm? Thank heaven for that tattoo. Best wishes for safety to all folks working alone; the creeps are all over. Let us all watch and help each other when we can.

She got out of his grip only because she twisted and pulled back at the right time, rather than only pulling … amazing how certain movements can get you out of a hold even when it’s a small person vs a big person. Some things come naturally and with adrenaline bits it’s also important to learn self defence.

[commonsense]

This guy has done this before. His behavior shows that he has done this to others, but now has gottn sloppy. I can't imagine how many people are missing because of this monster.

Looks like the bank is gonna reposses the truck cause we all know it's paid in monthly installments.

[ShawntreezyBreezy]

Them windows too damn big, your selling small items why the windows big enough for a large man to fit through? I've always worried for them

[instantkarma]

Knowing how the law works in Washington sure he'll be out before he weekend.

[Qbrain]

I bet this person is responsible for many missing women in King county?

[fegrace_]

I pray for the Barista. To think that she and the owner are in fear of being targeted is repulsive, to think individuals would attack the victim.

With that said, I am so glad that people called in a reported him, just imagine if this wasn't his first attack. Also to think what would have happened to her head or arm if he would have gotten the zip tie around her is absolutely horrifying. I hope he spends a long time in prison!

[precbsfender]

Not to mention, they got his License plate number..

[soulnomad]

Just saying some people are meant to go "missing" in the woods.

[HaywoodJablomi_]

I just want to know what he was planning to do? Like you really thought you could snatch a whole woman through a drive through window!? That is insane in itself. I wish they would put out more information, like an interrogation video or something. What a nut. I'm glad I work from home. This never happens in insurance billing.

[Havaseet]

Well, on a positive note, he left a decent tip.
