This morning January 11, 2026, at 12:51 am right before store closing time, staff at the QFC in Factoria, Bellevue, WA called 911 to report that a subject was essentially barricaded in one of the public restrooms. There was an active disturbance with sounds of banging around and glass being broken. This restroom is on the right side of the grocery store all the way in the back where goods are brought in and out of the store. The male was in the bathroom for approximately 40 minutes before being detained so that the Bellevue Fire Department could shut off the water. For 40 minutes he destroyed that bathroom and you will hear it in the background of officer communication on the scanner. That bathroom is now closed with tens of thousands of dollars in damage. Not to mention the flooding that happened reached almost the front doors of the store. There were visible puddles of water in the produce area later in the morning. Photos in comments. Employees walked around as if nothing happened. Just another day of stocking groceries and serving customers. However, many were shaking their heads as they walked by the aftermath. #BellevueWA #NoAccountability #CitizenJournalists
