Police: Ex-Boyfriend Threatens To Kill Woman, Son

Bainbridge Island police said they are looking for a man who they said threatened to kill a 39-year-old and her 12-year-old son early Sunday morning.

Police said the woman's ex-boyfriend broke into her home, poured gasoline on the woman and her son, and threatened to ignite it. The victims managed to escape.

The suspect is Edward Mark Olsen, 49, who was released from prison in California in October after serving time for assaulting the victim, police said. Olsen found the victim living on Bainbridge and assaulted her two weeks ago in her home, officers said.

Olsen is white, 49 years old, is 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighs about 210 pounds. He has short gray hair and a mustache.

Police said Olsen should be considered a threat to the community and that anyone who sees him or knows where he is should call 911 immediately.
