Violent Attack Unnerves Greenwood

The Greenwood community was left a little uneasy after an early morning assault on Tuesday, when 44-year-old Todd Boettger was brutally attacked, robbed, and left to fight for his life on the sidewalk in front of a local bar. Facing life-threatening head injuries, medics transported Boettger to Harborview Medical Center. The attack--which is currently being investigated by the police's homicide/assault unit--occurred on the same day Seattle's City Council voted to approve $1.3 million of funding for violence prevention. Maybe the initiative to prevent the rise in violence among Seattle's youth should be given a second look to include city-wide violence prevention.

This story is about my big Brother Todd whom I love so much. I have set up a fund for him and his daughter Lillian at US Bank to help pay for his medical bills and for the care of his daughter. If and when Todd recovers he will need many months of rehabilitation. Todd is a wonderful,kind and loving man. A great father who loves his daughter so very much and I promise you with every breath I take he is the best big brother anyone could ask for. If you would like to danate any money to help out you can go into any US Bank and ask to deposit into the "Todd Boettger Relief Fund" Please pray for my brother as he is the only brother I have and I love him so much. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Forrest Boettger, Little Bro
