On 17th Northwest, around 8 p.m. on Saturday June 13, a woman was able escape her husband who had pinned her down and was punching her in the face. She ran outside and began screaming. He ran away before officers arrived. The victim's face was badly swollen, and officers advised that she should get a protection order. “I already have one,” she stated. After she went to a friend's house to await a ride, her husband returned and began jumping up and down on her car. Officers later arrested the suspect and booked him into King County Jail for investigation of felony violation of a no-contact order and for misdemeanor assault.
