A 42-year-old male violently attacked an elderly woman in downtown Seattle last week, Seattle Police said.Just before noon Friday, a number of citizens reported witnessing a male swinging a wooden stick with a metal screw at the end of it along 3rd Avenue and James Street, officials said.'He'll be out in no time to strike again thanks to the Lunatic Leftists running Seattle and Washington State.'Moments later, the male approached a woman waiting at the crosswalk at 3rd and James and swung the stick like a baseball bat, intentionally striking the woman in the face from behind, officials said.With that, the victim fell backward to the ground with "a laceration that was bleeding heavily," officials said, citing the police report. Numerous bystanders came to the victim's aid and called 911, officials said.The Seattle Fire Department treated the 75-year-old woman for serious facial injuries, and paramedics transported her to Harborview Medical Center, where she underwent emergency surgery, officials said.Even though the suspect walked away from the scene, an analyst with the Real Time Crime Center located the suspect and told officers where he was, officials said.RELATED: 13-year-old punk accused of stealing woman's purse, punching her, throwing her to ground; but he's soon kissing concrete, too Within five minutes of the assault, nearby deputies with the King County Sheriff's Office found the suspect and detained him without incident, officials said.Deputies transferred the suspect to Seattle police custody, officials said, adding that the suspect was arrested after Real Time Crime Center video of the attack was reviewed.Officers booked him into the King County Jail for assault in the first degree, officials said, adding that police recovered the weapon as evidence.Officials added that the suspect had been given a "Violent Person" caution and is a felon previously convicted for assault.Commenters under KIRO-TV's video report about the incident don't appear to be holding out much hope that justice will prevail:"He'll be out in no time to strike again thanks to the Lunatic Leftists running Seattle and Washington State," one commenter wrote."What's new," another commenter wondered, adding that "it's a third-world sewage dump.""Shocking," another commenter added, with tongue firmly in cheek.

The story of Jackie Vernon and his unexpected path to voicing Frosty the Snowman has resurfaced thanks to new reflections shared on PEOPLE. More than 50 years after the 1969 holiday special premiered, fans are learning how casually Vernon approached the role that would later define generations of Christmas memories. His family revealed that he never imagined the project would become a timeless classic, and his laid-back attitude toward the opportunity has become part of its charm. Vernon initially felt the job was “a little beneath him,” and he didn’t think much about it. His son, David Vernon, explained that the comedian barely mentioned the project at home and believed it would air once and fade away. Yet the simple, warm voice he brought to the character helped turn Frosty into a beloved holiday tradition. The irony of that outcome highlights why Jackie Vernon remains such an enduring figure each season. A Role He Never Expected CBS David Vernon shared that his father took the Frosty job partly because someone else had dropped out and the timing happened to work. Jackie Vernon joked that he only got the part because “all the other fat guys were out of town,” showing the humor he carried into every aspect of his life. He didn’t prepare for the role and didn’t consider it important enough to remember in detail later.

Even though he saw it as a small job, audiences connected instantly with Frosty’s gentle voice. As David noted, his father never imagined the film would become a yearly staple. More than five decades later, Jackie Vernon is remembered with affection each holiday season, proving how meaningful the work became despite his early doubts. A Family Reaction To Remember CBS / Rankin Bass Productions On the night Frosty first aired in 1969, Vernon’s family watched it together like millions of other viewers. David recalled that he and his siblings felt they were too old for what they called a “young kid show.” That changed quickly when the film reached its emotional ending. His younger sister panicked, believing Frosty’s melting meant her father was “dying,” and the moment created chaos in their living room.

The memory has become a treasured family story, showing how powerful and unexpectedly emotional the film was for children everywhere.
