Police said she walked into the downtown federal building near Third Avenue and Spring Street and pulled a gun. Detectives stated she held the weapon to her chest at one point.
FBI agents negotiated with the woman for an hour before FBI SWAT arrested her just after 4 p.m. without incident.

Court documents name 42-year-old Chelsea Alexis Gray of Everett as the woman who walked into the FBI Seattle office armed with a 9mm semi-automatic pistol.
The documents show the suspect pictured in the front entrance area of the lobby with the gun pointed at her chest and her finger at the trigger. Gray was wearing a white dress with a white T-shirt over it that had a target painted on the front and back of the shirt with writing along the bottom. An FBI crisis negotiator spoke with Gray through a phone connected to the intercom in the visitor's entrance vestibule as she was demanding to be let in to speak with an FBI agent.
“She did tell law enforcement, and she was very excited about what she wanted to talk about,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Tate London said. “There was one bullet in the chamber. If she had to use it, she would.”
Court documents state Gray claimed, “she had weapons of mass destruction codes and that she was willing to die to get her message out.”
