Break-in on the Westside
At around midnight on October 31, 2012, a woman woke in her Westside home to find a masked intruder at the foot of her bed. The man held a butcher knife and demanded that she give him money, which she did. The crime was not reported until this morning when the frightened victim talked with her neighbor who then called the police. The victim was unable to give a description of the robber because of the mask. Neighbors reported seeing two men leaving the area of the victim's front yard around the time of the incident.
Olympia Police officers have developed several persons of interest and the investigation is on-going. Anyone with information about this crime is urged to call the Olympia Police Department at 360.704.2740 or Thurston County Crimestoppers at 360.493.2222 (callers may remain anonymous).

OMG, this is the first I've heard of this. I don't get the newspaper any more. No time, as I'm a full time student and mother and worker. I'm in the SW area of Oly. This is just terrible.
