The Tacoma Police Department requests the public’s help identifying a man who allegedly made threats outside a Washington State Patrol trooper’s home.

The man allegedly “pointed what appeared to be a gun at a home’s camera — where a marked WSP car was in the driveway — and made threats,” the Tacoma Police Department posted on X with photos of the man Thursday.

He is suspected of felony harassment, according to the post. The department asks anyone who can identify him to submit an anonymous tip through the P3 Tips platform, calling 1-800-222-TIPS or visiting tpcrimestoppers.com. There is a reward of up to $1,000 for providing “information that leads to arrest and charges filed,” according to Crime Stoppers.
