I don't think he will be living free much longer, someone will recognize that. I hope they really throw the book at this attempted mass murderer.

It seems like he should be quite recognizable from those photos.

He is a person of interest, @1, nothing more. Innocent until proven guilty. Don't succumb to the dark side, and jump to conclusions. We don't know what's going on with the investigation, and I don't think I've heard SPD say "These are the pictures of the arsonist". It is just someone they want to interview - perhaps because he was witness to the arson - we just don't know.

@1: They said person of interest, not suspect. Let's not jump to conclusions. They might just want to question him to find out what was in the bag. Or this person might have been near the entrance at the time. Or maybe this person was kicked out earlier and they want to find out where he was. Or maybe he looks somewhat similar to someone a witness saw running away. Who knows, except the SPD?

Remember what happened in Boston. There was a person of interest who was a Saudi National, but he had nothing to do with it. Let's not run crazy on this guy yet.

Why isn't there a reward fund drive yet? I'd pitch in.

@3/4: Is he holding a bag with the gas canister in it?

I'd also chip in for reward money.

I believe there is a $10,000 reward for information out already.

I can't see much in that.

He definitely has a bag, but past that...

If he did it, throw the book at him, but let's make sure we throw the book at the right guy.

Throw the book at the Right guy? Ya think? It may be over 5 yrs since shake ma booty at diskotek, but back in my day, the cha-cha ladies weren't looking to throw their book at mr Right guy, more like mr Right Now guy!

Does this help solving the crime, Goldie?

Is it just me or does anyone else see, "dnt trust me" and think "oh look it's the unshowered flasher in the dirty trench coat"?

@11: Most of the posts on Slog are worthy of our whimsical attempts with lame catty humor, but this isn't one of them. I like your effervescence, but reverence for this incident is duly warranted.

A lot of our readership, like me, could very well have had friends and love ones severely maimed or killed that night.

@11: your unceasing dedication to the craft of being a useless fucking cunt on every single comment thread here is duly noted. Now go home.

@12,13, 14

Who to believe? Machfivelli and Dr Head thinkI suck entirely. Raindrip is more tolerant of my buffornery.

So ok, compromise! apologies for this comment on a near lethal event.

But can I expose my ugly body and coat on the fauxtrite immediacy posts by Paul Constant?

@15: To answer your last question, absolutely! And please do so without inhibition. Actually, however, Mr. Constant's arts and literature posts are quite interesting and informative; but his political posts can only be described as delicious catalysts to the thumbs up yes crowd or refreshing rebuttals from the more elevated thinkers on Slog.

They should catch him in no time now that they got that awesome video off of the club's Betamax tape

@16 Please don't stroke the flasher.

This is doubtless just my middle-age showing, but doesn't this young man look like about half of the men one sees on Capitol Hill each day? He really does have that generic hill look going on.

Yup, I jumped the gun there, my bad. Let's say I hope they catch and prosecute the guilty party to the full extent of the law.

looks an awful lot like Ted Cruz...

SPD should just drone his ass

@13: 11 is effervescent like a carbonated porta potty. You are not in agreement with Paul's politics, or most of the rest Slog for that matter, but you always post in good faith. Not the case with 11. Seriously, don't engage them, you'll never get the stink off. Just press your hanky to your face and get up wind as quickly as you can.
@19: I don't know, to me he looks like Hooligan Number 3 from a Jason Statham film. It think it's the way his shirt fits.
In any event I hope they catch who ever did this before they try again.

@25: Right, there's a pretty obvious difference between being a critic and coming off as completely unglued. I agree with most everything raindrop says, but at least I understand where they're coming from and what they're saying.

This guy has generic gay beardy hipster look. The thing to note, for me, is his chunky watch. And that he does not appear to be balding. Most guys with this look seem to have a bald spot. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Somebody should post the photos on Reddit.

Their users are great at detective work !
