The case of the wizard and mysterious black scarf of Boylston Ave E

Here are the 911 call notes from a most suspicious of suspicious circumstances investigation that went down on Boylston Ave E Sunday afternoon around 1:50 PM:

Investigation of witchcraft, unknown suspect. Scarf is located there now.

According to the SPD report filed on the incident, responding officers found a woman waiting for them at the address. She told the officers that she believed somebody had been practicing witchcraft outside her second floor condominium window.

The woman said she had seen “a gentleman in the tree right outside her bedroom window the night prior,” the report states. The woman said an unidentified man was in the tree approximately 25 feet off the ground. She said she couldn’t remember what the man was wearing but, the next morning, she saw a black scarf hanging in the tree where the man had been. She said there was something left inside the scarf but she couldn’t tell what it was.

The responding officers could, indeed, see the mysterious black scarf. But whatever the man had left in the scarf was gone. The officer writes, “From multiple vantage it did not appear that the scarf had any items inside of it.”

If you even wonder what all the cops do, read this.

The question is who was drunk, the lady or the guy in the tree or both?

Ah, sweet Seattle summer nights .. what doth thou yield.

How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?

Someone practicing witchcraft in Capitol Hill? Surprised? That’s like being shocked at seeing power-walkers on the Issaquah plateau.

Lame… Think that lady needs to find a new neighborhood to live in.
