in Seattle's Belltown neighborhood has pleaded not guilty in court on Monday.
According to court documents, the 38-year-old suspect approached the two victims, who were standing near the campus of City University of Seattle on Nov. 8before headbutting one of the victims in the face. Witnesses also told police that the suspect had a large stick and began trying to attack another man with it and threw that man to the ground.
Probable cause documents say a witness told officers that the suspect had a face of "pure rage" as he attacked the two men. The man thrown to the ground had a dislocated shoulder and the man who was headbutted had a broken nose and other minor facial injuries. The suspect was arrested a short time after the attack. Officers noticed he had blood on his knuckles but he allegedly told them he scraped his hands trying to jump over a fence. He also had a bloody lip that officers pointed out to him, and the suspect said he got the bloody lip from a bike accident, according to court documents.
He's also been convicted in other states for assault causing bodily injury, domestic assault causing bodily injury/mental illness, driving while intoxicated, among other charges. Prosecutors requested he be held on $10,000 bail.
