The Thin Blue Blog
Seattle's Police Beat
About


The Thin Blue Blog is Seattle's city-wide police blotter. We feature the stories that fly (much like Bat Boy) under the radar of the mainstream media.


Things to Know

Material for The Thin Blue Blog comes from official Seattle Police Department incident reports
We know and convey only what is documented there. So let’s say we write that your Aunt Mildred clubbed an intruder over the head with a frozen leg of lamb. But your family disagrees, claiming that she actually wielded a freezer-burned beef brisket. Don’t bother contacting us. Your bone, should you care to pick one, is with the SPD.


The Thin Blue Blog is a name-free zone
We’re here to amuse and inform, not embarrass. Besides, the reports we see are redacted (that is, most identifying details have been blacked out). We do, however, provide general neighborhood information when pertinent or useful.


The Thin Blue Blog is neither associated with nor vetted by the Seattle Police Department




"There are 8 million stories in the Emerald City. We cover the interesting ones."
