• Broadway bank robbery: Seattle Police and the FBI are searching for the suspect in a Saturday morning hold-up at the Wells Fargo branch inside the Broadway Market shopping center. The robbery was reported around 10:45 AM Saturday. Monday morning, SPD distributed these security images of the suspect described by witnesses as a white male, dressed in black “from head to toe.” He reportedly had what was described as a Russian accent. It’s not clear if the suspect was armed or implied he had a weapon and police typically won’t say what if any cash is taken in bank hold-ups. He was last seen fleeing the area on foot, eastbound on E Republican. If you can help identify the suspect or have information that might help the investigation, call 911.UPDATE 10/28/2016: The suspect has been arrested:
  A Seattle bank robber was arrested this week after he stopped in for a visit with his Department of Corrections (DOC) supervisor, who recognized him from security camera photos. On Saturday, October 22nd, a white male walked into a bank in the 400 block of Broadway Ave East. The suspect (pictured) fled the bank with cash. An alert DOC officer saw the photo of the bank robbery suspect and recognized him as someone who is already a client of the Department of Corrections, in light of his previous conviction for robbery. When the suspect went to his visit his DOC officer on the 27th, he was taken into custody and turned over to Seattle police. Robbery detectives booked the suspect into King County Jail for investigation of robbery.

• Seattle U bias investigation: Seattle University is trying to find out who is responsible for swastikas drawn on white boards on the school’s campus earlier this month:
  We are writing to report a few deeply disturbing incidents. During the first two weeks of October, three drawings of swastikas were found on the white boards outside the rooms of students living in one of our residence halls. The swastika is a powerful symbol of hate, one that cannot be ignored, particularly around the holy days of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Seattle University cannot and does not tolerate bias. The university has taken several steps in response to the incidents. The Department of Public Safety and the Seattle Police Department were notified, and the incidents currently remain under investigation. We will update students, faculty and staff if more information becomes available. In the meantime, if you have any information about the incidents, please contact the Department of Public Safety at (206) 296-5990. Alternatively, anonymous reports may be filed online through EthicsPoint.According to the school’s statement on the investigation, it is also providing resources “responding to the needs of and facilitating dialogue among the affected residential community.”
