The Seattle Police Department has seized drugs, handguns, and EBT cards in Beacon Hill after an investigation into a fraud ring.

Late in the summer, Seattle Police began an operation investigating the sale of fentanyl and the trade of stolen merchandise in exchange for fentanyl in the Chinatown-International District.

Police took the man into custody and booked the 63-year-old man into King County Jail for illegal possession of narcotics and unlawful possession of a firearm. Investigators said the suspects offered EBT recipients between 50 cents and 30 cents on the dollar for the balances on their EBT cards. In most cases, the suspects accompanied cardholders into a store, instructed them what to buy, and took custody of the groceries/merchandise after checking out.

The Seattle Police Department is asking for the public’s help to identify the occupants of a grey sedan that detonated a small homemade explosive or firework device near Judkins Park.If you have any information about this incident, please contact investigators at 206-684-8980.The Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office said on Dec.

Deputies said more than $4,000 worth of items was stolen, with deputies recovering a little more than $3800 worth of the stolen merchandise.
