Yesterday’s Seattle Police Department “Tweetalong” with Officer Audi Acuesta started off slow, peaked with a robbery arrest in Maple Leaf (complete with news helicopers), and made for interesting reading throughout.
Seattle Police Officer Acuesta, just before heading off to assist fellow officers with arresting a home invasion suspect in Maple Leaf.
The following is a collection of nearly all of Officer Acuesta’s tweets on the Seattle Police Department’s twitter feed yesterday, plus some of my commentary. I also pulled some comments made by others from the #tweetalong hashtag, though not all.

SPD Blotter » Wanted Robbery suspect apprehended in North Seattle
Posted by Detective Jeff Kappel On September 13th at approximately 1:29 p.m. North Precinct patrol officers spotted a wanted robbery suspect driving a white sedan in the area of NE 107th Street and 15th Avenue NE (there was probable cause to arrest the adult male suspect for a home-invasion robbery that occurred in the city within the last few weeks).
|
| “ | Ofc. Acuesta and I were finishing up our chat when the burglary call came through. He sped off to assist… #tweetalong | |||
|
| “ | Not a call he would normally go to alone, as he’s only a single officer in a patrol car. But he did help out: http://t.co/1D0SZEo | |||
|
| “ | In Cowen/Ravenna Park now. RT @SeattlePD: Drugs are bad! Please so no to drugs! #SeattlePD #tweetalong http://t.co/aJcqSKD | |||
