Dear Editor,
I am writing this in reference to a article that was written in the online West Seattle Herald, May 12, 2013, It was a update on the nuisance house on 36th and Morgan street. A neighbor Mr. Andrew McCarty stated that a man living at the house was arrested for stealing. Mr. Andrew McCarty went on to say that the original owner was an elderly woman who was in a nursing home. According to Mr. Andrew McCarty the man was her son, and after he was arrested "They recovered a lot of stolen property."
Mr. Andrew McCarty does not know what he is talking about. The man was not the owners son, my husband is her son, nor was the man anyone in the family. The man was not even supposed to be in that house and he was evicted, I am writing this because we are upset that the facts were not checked with police to solve this whole thing and they the police would have known who the man was. It was quite embarrassing for my husband to have friends comment on this article, which we had not seen.
I have always enjoyed the West Seattle Herald, in print and online and I have followed them on Facebook and will continue to enjoy them. We just want the retraction printed to set the record straight.
Thank you
Mrs. Patricia Ingram
