The FBI has released the picture of one of the men
believed to have attacked a federal courthouse in Seattle
during the downtown May Day vandalism spree, and is
offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to his
arrest.

“Investigators saw the attackers, and we had a photo of
him from previous incidents in the day. So now we’re
looking to gain more information about this individual to
identify him and hold him responsible for these attacks on
the courthouse,” says Ayn Sandalo Dietrich with the FBI in
Seattle.

Several people were seen smashing windows at the William
Kenzo Nakamura U.S. Courthouse on Fifth Avenue, but
Dietrich says the others weren’t recognizable and
investigators hope the reward will help bring all of the
attackers to justice.

“Maybe they were seen at other times of the day. A lot of
them were totally clad in black and we’re having a
difficult time identifying them,” Dietrich says.

Anyone with information that can help identify the
individual in the picture – or any others who attacked the
Courthouse – is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-
TIPS (8477).
