Please be on the lookout for a 28′ tan 1992 Bounder motorhome with Washington License plate BPP8654, possibly headed north from Seattle driven by Nicholas Antoine, a white male 42, described as 6’4″ tall, 250 pounds, long hair and sometimes a beard.
He is accompanied by his wife Crystal Lane Antoine, a white female, 38, and four children:
- Charles Antoine a white male 13, described as 5’03” tall and 100 pounds with blond hair and brown eyes, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt
- George Antoine white male 16 years old, described as 5’6″ tall, 120 pounds, blond hair and green eyes wearing a black hooded sweatshirt
- Sadie Antoine a white female, 9, 4’0″ tall and 90 pounds, with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a black sweater
- Rose Antoine a white female, 7 years old, 4’5″ tall and 80 pounds, with blond hair and blue eyes. She was also wearing a black sweater
- Seattle Police petitioned the Washington State Patrol to issue an Amber Alert for four minor children that are deemed to be in imminent danger by a King County Superior Court judge. The judge has issued an order that the children be turned over to Child Protective Services (CPS). Prior to that occurring the father of the children left Seattle in his motorhome with his wife and children.
There is concern that the father, Nicholas Antoine, is actively fleeing the state after withholding needed medication from his children. Case workers report that the father has made threats of physical harm. Antoine is considered armed and dangerous and may be armed with an AR-15.
If you have information about this motorhome or this family, please call 911 immediately.

Really? Sounds suspicious on…
Really? Sounds suspicious on the part of the government tracking. It's getting harder and harder to trust & believe what Government says. Maybe something was wrong here but I'll believe it when I have all the facts. In the meantime, it's worth noting that Governments are the biggest mass murderers in human history. Every kind of government has done terrible things.
coulda sworn i saw that…
coulda sworn i saw that motor home on 41st ave SW near Brandon St on tuesday the 10th around 3 pm. there was a suspicious looking dude who got out, appeared to forget locking the door, looking everywhere, walked back to lock it, left' in a similar very nervous seeming manner. the only reason i would have said anything was the whole scene seemed out of place for the neighborhood. i thought maybe it was drugs, but i could be wrong. i saw the amber alert later and didn't even think about it till i saw this photo.
Amber Alert has been canceled now. Hopefully children are in a safe environment.
