Felony Harassment

On a Tuesday afternoon at the Fred Meyer in Shoreline, the defendant pointed a realistic looking handgun at a security guard who asked him to leave. Although police discovered it was an airsoft gun, it looked real to the victim, which caused him to fear for his life. Given the defendant’s actions, combined with the nature of his criminal convictions that include three assault cases, the KCPAO argued that he should be held on $50,000 bail.
