Police Seek Suspect In Attacks On ‘Bikini Barista’ Coffee Stand Workers In Washington

Police in Washington are seeking the public’s help identifying a suspect in multiple attacks on women working at bikini barista stands over the past week.

The Everett Police Department said the first attack took place at around 1 p.m. Sunday at the Lady Bug Espresso on the 5700 block of Evergreen Way. According to police, the suspect entered the coffee stand and attempted to assault an employee. The worker fought him off, and he fled.

On Wednesday, April 9, at around 3:30 p.m., a second attack occurred at a drive-thru coffee stand on the 9100 block of Evergreen Way. The victim told police the suspect entered the coffee stand and attempted to assault her, and her description matched that of the suspect in the first attack.

The suspect is described as a thin, light-skinned black or Hispanic male, approximately 20–30 years old, estimated to be 6 feet, 3 inches tall. He may have either a dark mustache or a small goatee.

Police said they will be conducting additional patrols along Evergreen Way, and will deliver flyers with photos of the suspect to nearby “bikini barista” coffee stands.

Police say anyone who sees the suspect should not approach him and should call 911. Detectives are asking anyone with information to come forward or submit an anonymous tip.
