TACOMA, Wash. — Police in Tacoma are asking the public to help identify a man caught on video pointing a gun at a home where a Washington State Patrol vehicle was clearly parked in the driveway.
The alarming incident happened on April 7, 2025. Surveillance footage from the home’s doorbell camera captured a man approaching the property and appearing to aim a firearm toward the house. He also made threatening comments, then flipped off the camera before walking away.
Authorities believe the suspect may have intentionally targeted the residence because of the marked patrol car parked in front.
