Seattle sees 525 percent spike in crime thanks to CHOP: Mayor Durkan
Seattle saw a staggering 525 percent spike in crime as a result of the violence that swept through the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest, according to Mayor Jenny Durkan.
Durkan’s emergency order booting protesters from the six-block cop-free zone makes mention of the “narcotics use and violent crime, including rape, robbery, assault, and increased gang activity” within CHOP since it first emerged in early June.
June 2 to June 30 saw the 525 percent jump in crime compared to the same period last year.
It was all "The Summer of Love" until they showed up at the door of her house. Then, she got serious and CHOP was gone in a few days.
