A James Bond wannabe was arrested in downtown Seattle Wednesday morning after a bizarre course of events.

Seattle police say a witness spotted an older gentleman dressed in a tuxedo give some money to a woman before the pair ducked into a dark alcove near 4th Ave. S. and S. Main Street around 2 a.m.

The woman quickly stopped her sexual act after a couple passed the pair in the alleyway.

Police say the man stormed down the street after the couple while informing him he was going to kill them. He fired one shot and missed.

The 64-year-old man, who officers say appeared “highly intoxicated,” was booked into the King County Jail for assault.
