A Gig Harbor woman with a physical disability 鈥 in Seattle to buy a new pair of shoes and go to a doctor鈥檚 appointment 鈥 reached out to the Dori Monson Show after a disturbing incident occurred during her recent visit: 鈥淚 know I make this wheelchair life look glamorous and fun, but on Friday I was targeted and assaulted.鈥

Stacie, who is afraid to share her last name with a larger audience, describes a midday attack she suffered near Third Avenue and Pike Street in downtown Seattle while waiting to cross the street.

鈥淎 naked woman started screaming at me and started hitting me with her jacket,鈥 Stacie said. 鈥淚 had my hair on top of my head in a bun, and she grabbed it, whaling my head back and forth into my wheelchair.”

鈥淪he had pants on, but they were falling off,鈥 Stacie described. 鈥淪he didn鈥檛 have anything on top. 鈥 It was [as if I were in the] Twilight Zone.鈥

Coming to her rescue, Stacie鈥檚 husband managed to throw the mostly naked woman to the ground 鈥 but that provoked the attacker鈥檚 鈥渃olleagues,鈥 she recalls, 鈥渁nd they didn鈥檛 like that.鈥

Stacie has flashbacks about what might have happened to them both if Seattle police hadn鈥檛 arrived so quickly.

Stacie says she has since learned from a victims’ advocate that her attacker鈥檚 criminal history includes 57 arrests since 2000. Her most recent 2021 arrest remains open because the alleged attacker failed to appear at her competency hearing.

鈥淲hat鈥檚 infuriating is that a group is trying to bail her out,鈥 Stacie said. 鈥淚f they bail her out, what is her incentive to show up for trial?”

鈥淚 know she targeted me,鈥 the Gig Harbor woman believes.

Her husband called the incident 鈥渓ike a dog who spotted a rabbit,” adding that “people in wheelchairs are so vulnerable from behind.鈥

Stacie appreciates the Seattle police and the kindness of people at Caf茅 Nordstrom who responded shortly after the attack, but says, 鈥淚 haven鈥檛 felt safe since. My neck is sore and I can鈥檛 sleep. When did it not become OK to go out in public?鈥
