Police seek ‘person of interest’ in connection to last weekend’s stabbing

Meghan Walker Ballard

Seattle Police are asking for help in identifying the man who they believe is in connection to the stabbing of a Ballard man last weekend.

Last Friday at 10pm, 34-year-old Johnny Robinson was in his tattoo shop on NW 45th St when he saw two men outside, slashing tires. He confronted the two, and was stabbed by one of the men. Robinson’s injuries were life-threatening — he’s still in the hospital recovering from a stab wound to the chest.

Police released the above photo, which is from a surveillance camera near the Ballard Animal Hospital. The photo shows the man urinating on the side of the hospital. According to the SPD Blotter, detectives consider the man a “person of interest” and would like to speak with him about the stabbing.

If you have any information about this case or recognize the man in the photos, call Seattle Police at (206) 233-5000.

  2. Funny– he doesn’t look like an RV dweller as so many surmised.

    No, he looks like he just left Matador– maybe his old frat buddies deserted him when he had to pee

    1. Kind of makes the paranoid trolls look like fools. Again.

      Not that it will deter them in the slightest. Their righteous anger justifies everything. Ask them how they can justify lying, impersonating others, deceiving 911 dispatchers or the police, disrupting public meetings, blatant racism, even shooting a man dead, and they use the same excuse: because they’re that mad about “junkie hobos”.

      “You can’t hold me accountable for anything I say or do, because I’m real angry about this thing. Camping in parks is illegal so I get to break the law too. Those guys over there broke parking rules, so I get to slander and libel anyone I like!” It’s like trying to convince an angry toddler that biting is never OK, even when that other kid broke his toy. Toddlers and dotty old people have a lot in common.

      11. Hi, thanks for your support! Gosh, what an incoherent rant! I, Mike O’Brine, wonder if JB1whatever isn’t one of our ‘most vulnerable’ community members, the way it prattles on like a junkie deep in heroin’s embrace! That’s ok, friend! We love and enable our most vulnerable here in Ballard! Do you need a safe space, some smack, and a hug? And remember, Vote Salty, Vote O’Brine 2019!

    3. This is where you’re wrong Clint. He very well could be an RV dweller but we would never know would we…especially since the city council and spd let ANYONE live rent free and all you need is an rv. Looks like he’s already used to using the streets as a bathroom.

  5. A witness on the Safe Seattle FB page recognizes this man as an RV dweller. See their page for more info.

    They have already contacted the SPD.

    1. Yeah Facebook, where nobody makes shit up.

      If senile old fools didn’t believe everything they read on Facebook, we’d have forgotten Trump even tried to get nominated for president by now. Can’t you old farts go back to shuffleboard or something? No more Facebook for you, grandpa. No more.

  7. hmmm, it now appears that he is indeed an RV urchin after all.

    i assume elenchos will be apologizing shortly for her weird rant upthread?

  11. Hi, thanks for your support! We don’t talk like that here in Ballard! Here in Ballard, we respect and enable all of our community members! This man is merely experiencing limpness! Get woke, friend! And remember, Vote Salty, Vote O’Brine 2019!
