Drive-by eggings plaguing Seattle high school
SEATTLE -- Drive-by eggings are plaguing Seattle's Nathan Hale High School, where at least three students have been hit by the yolk-y projectiles, according to the Seattle Police Department.
The most recent attack took place last Friday. A student was waiting for her father to pick her up near the Nathan Hale flagpole around 10 p.m. when she heard a cracking and felt something hit her foot.
According to the police report for the incident, the student turned around to see broken eggs on the ground and a dark-colored Subaru-type car driving away with its window rolling up.
The victim's mother reported the attack on Monday. The victim told officers she doesn't have any enemies and believes it was a random egging.
The victim's mother told officers she has heard from other parents that at least two other students have been egged recently.
Police have a suspect in those previous eggings, but it is unknown if he is responsible for the egging last Friday.
Nathan Hale students are warned to be on the look out, lest this mysterious Egg Man scope them on his scopes.
@All of those below Many of you are dismissing or making light of this story. I understand why.
Just be aware that while practicing at H'Zoo we saw more than a few SERIOUS eye injuries from eggs thrown from cars.
Just sayin...
What a dumb story
@Thepriest What a dumb comment, you didn't have to read it OR say anything.
Man, let me tell you when you're walking and a car drives by the other way and tosses an egg at you, for a second there, it almost feels like you've been shot. Impact, gooey, you'll feel it with your hands, ect. It's happened to me before, not very fun. Hope they catch the dumb punks responsible.
Not that this is acceptable behavior..... However, I would rather hear of egg throwing instead of the other......
Yo they just got my little cousin ese!
@floggingnotblogging Nicely done.
A Beastie Boys fan!! This is the 2nd reference I have noted in one of your stories to date...I enjoy the lighthearted additions to your news!
@aintno1special Thanks! It's been a good day when I can sneak an obvious Beastie Boys reference into a story.
@MichaelHarthorne @aintno1specialMust admit it's cool Komo lets you have stylistic leeway with your prose.Â
@MichaelHarthorne @NW-Economist @aintno1special Give yourself some credit man!
@NW-Economist @MichaelHarthorne @aintno1special That was too deep a cut for me to reference.
@MichaelHarthorne @NW-Economist @aintno1specialEgg raid on Mojo!
@NW-Economist @MichaelHarthorne @aintno1special  KOMO's  editors play fast and loose with facts daily, skew stories with their "progressive" slant, censor comments on this board whenever they don't agree with them (this one will be gone soon),  and don't seem to be bothered by the fact that most of their writers cannot spell worth a hoot.  I too appreciate a writer/reporter with a little humor and some entertaining qualities, but I'm guessing no one at KOMO would notice if Michael lit himself on fire in the lunch room.  Brass Monkey, that Funky Monkey.
@NW-Economist @MichaelHarthorne @aintno1special I definitely think so. Hopefully, all you readers enjoy it so they let me keep doing it.
Somehow, just based off the title I knew it was Nathan Hale. Go Raiders!
The only way to stop a bad guy with an egg is a good guy with an egg.Â
@lakeview What will we do with all the "high-capacity" throwing-hands that are already out there?  Will expiration dates need to be extended to accommodate mandatory waiting periods?  Will our eggs have to be shipped to a federally licensed egg-dealer?  The scumbags will still find a way to get eggs and the black market will flourish.
@HawkEye @lakeview Or how about those that have their own "egg makers"?
@lakeview ...or ban all "assault eggs"! Three students is just too many victims.
@aintno1special @lakeview I'll settle for universal background checks on all egg purchases over a dozen. We need to close the Egg Show Loophole. Think of the children! Â
Send them down to egg in Spanaway and see what happens...
