• 12th/Marion shooting: Police say one victim was reported grazed by a bullet in a 2 AM shooting in an E Marion just off 12th Ave early Sunday. SPD units spread throughout the area to search for a suspect last seen wearing a white and orange striped polo as he fled. Police found a white Mercedes at the scene believed to have been driven by the shooter and an uncooperative female passenger. A K9 unit tracked the shooter to a nearby construction site but a search of the area did not turn up the man who reportedly opened fire. Police found one handgun ditched near the scene and a Glock magazine at another location, according to East Precinct radio dispatches. There were reportedly at least two guns involved in the incident. Police had been called to the area just prior to the shooting to a report of a fight across from Seattle University.

  UPDATE: Here’s a Seattle U security bulletin on the incident. SPD hasn’t yet posted any additional info. Curiously, SU’s bulletin doesn’t mention firearms:
  On 07/27/2014, at approximately 2:03am a non-SU affiliated male assaulted 2 non-SU affiliated females at 12th Avenue and E. Marion St. after a verbal argument. The male was described as dark skinned, 6 feet, medium build, wearing an orange t-shirt, blue jeans, and white and orange tennis shoes. The male was last seen inside a white Mercedes sedan leaving the area in an unknown direction. Seattle Police responded and investigated the incident. DPS has increased patrols in the 12th Avenue corridor.UPDATE: SPD reports the primary suspect was tracked down and another suspect was also arrested in the incident:

• E Pike tavern motorcycle heist: Police were called to nearby Big Mario’s Pizza early Friday after someone was overheard bragging about having stolen a motorcycle earlier that night. The bike, belonging to Sam’s Tavern across the street from the pizza joint, had apparently been pushed across the street. Somebody from Sam’s told police the inoperable motorcycle typically sits at the entrance of the hamburger bar as part of the tavern’s decor. The bike was apparently returned and no arrests were made.
• Dick’s pants dropper arrested: In a case from earlier this month also involving late-night shenanigans at a Capitol Hill nightlife dining spot, police arrested a woman who somehow caused $75 in damage when she dropped her pans and committed a lewd act in front of Broadway’s Dick’s Drive-in:

Suspect Drops Pants, Attacks Staff at Dick’s
Written by Jonah Spangenthal-Lee on July 17, 2014 1:47 pm
Employees at the Broadway Dick’s Drive-In now have 100% real beef with a woman who dropped her pants and attacked staff Wednesday evening.

Staff at the Dick’s on Broadway and E. Denny Way called police at about 5:30 PM after the woman began harassing customers and refused when a manager asked her to leave the property. Instead, the woman grabbed a condiment holder and a charity donation box off Dick’s front counter and hurled them at employees. The woman struck one staff member in the arm, scratching him.
When officers arrived at the scene, a witness also told them the woman pulled her pants down and performed a very lewd act in front of Dick’s.

Officers arrested the woman—who reportedly caused $75 worth of damage during the incident—and booked her into the King County Jail for assault and harassment.
