With a shooting in Pioneer Square just minutes earlier, a volley of gunshots was reported in the area south of Bellevue and Republican this morning around 2:10 AM.

In Pioneer Square, a man was found with a gunshot wound to his shoulder just before 2 AM. Police are clearing the ‘Sunken Ship’ parking garage near 2nd and Yesler. The victim and those with him are being ‘uncooperative’ according to police radio chatter. He has been transported to Harborview.

Back on Capitol Hill, a caller reported hearing multiple shots and possibly seeing a car speed away from the area of the shots fired calls. According to radio reports, an officer pulled over a Jeep Cherokee carrying five passengers near Denny and Bellevue that is possibly related to the incident.

Police are now canvassing for witnesses and searching the area between Harrison and Denny for evidence.

UPDATE 8:05 AM:
Not many new details on what people heard this morning and no official confirmation of the story from SPD. One factor we neglected to include in the preliminary write-up was that calls came in from the area reporting a loud argument prior to the shots being heard. We are following up with SPD for more information. With the holiday, SPD’s public info office is close so expect the story to take some time to unfurl.
