At 10:15 a.m. on Feb. 13, SPD said officers responded to the hospital after reports of a man who was allegedly attacking nurses inside a trauma room.
The man was initially admitted on Friday night for a wrist injury but when he was discharged, he became enraged, attacking and spitting on hospital staff.
He also broke open an oxygen line, set fire to a bucket of medical supplies, made a noose with plastic tubing, and threatened to kill himself, according to Seattle Police.
“During this time, he had ripped open the oxygen line and he lit a fire,” said Eric Muñoz with Seattle PD. “That creates a substantial risk of explosion.”
