‘He took a skidder and took out two houses,’ Haynes said. ‘I mean demolished.’

A skidder is a bulldozer-like device used in logging. The News reported that records indicated Barry Swegle may have operated a logging company, founded in 1997.

Another neighbor, Judith Walters, always witnessed the bulldozer go through a home.

‘I saw a tractor, out of control, I thought. And it plowed into the white house over here,’ Walters told KIRO-TV.
