On 02-14-2022 at 10:13pm, an on-duty Seattle Fire employee parked his personal vehicle across the alley from his assigned Fire Station. While working, he heard his vehicle being driven and when he looked outside, he discovered someone was attempting to steal his vehicle.

The victim opened the passenger door to stop the theft, but the suspect accelerated causing him to be thrown from the vehicle.

The victim hit the ground causing minor injuries to his arm and hand. A second vehicle which appeared to have dropped the suspect off, took off behind the stolen vehicle, almost running the victim over.

An area check was completed but both vehicles are outstanding.

The victim received first aid at the station and was not transported to the hospital. Incident screened with robbery.
