According to East Precinct radio updates, witnesses reported at least one male involved in an assault or an altercation who opened fire with around 10 shots into the air around 1:45 AM as officers were responding to another fight disturbance near Broadway.

- 14th/Cherry crash: A three-car collision Saturday night at 14th and Cherry brought a large Seattle Fire and Seattle Police response after a report of one occupant trapped in a flipped vehicle. The large crash scene was reported just after 10:15 PM involving three vehicles, including one car flipped onto its side with a person trapped inside. Seattle Fire reported the occupant was able to “self extricate.” There were no reported significant injuries. The driver of one of the vehicles reportedly fled the scene on foot. Seattle Police were searching the area but reported no arrests.
Seattle City Council candidate Joy Hollingsworth happened onto the crash scene and reported the high-speed crash was caused by “street racing.”
Last night on 14th/Cherry, we walked on the scene of a major car accident from a street racing incident. Traffic safety is super important. Big thank you to our first responders, especially our Fire Department, who had to extract driver/passangers. Next to Seattle U + Cherry Hill pic.twitter.com/Qodd9m0ttJ

Shootings getting out of control here in the state’s largest open air drug market. And as usual, SPD nowhere near this hotspot during the usual hours when these happen and so no arrests. Same ol same ol but everything is fine!
totally agree. we have to hold the folks who enabled this behavior accountable this November..
Guns should be all be banned. There wouldn’t be shootings if there were no guns.
Obvious.
You do realize that there are only so many cops and that we can’t have them just standing around on every street corner in case crime happens, right?
Seattle Police Department wanted this to be: Anarchy, a cop’s paradise. Rue the day when all those very officers and detectives that think the idea of cooperation and them being Seattle Police is going to prevent them from being prosecuted.
The best drug dealers in Seattle are Seattle Police Department; deaf ears and blind eyes: An ear for an ear and an eye for an eye. The Federal Bureau of Investigation f
ucke`d up by allow one of their own along with one of their former officers to do what they have yet to determine and it has nothing to do with conducting an investigation as defined in 18 U.S. Code § 3052 of which a few SPD officers and detectives, federal agents/officers/marshals (take your pick, they all swear to uphold something and the collection that are in violation of the cited federal statute know they are in violation of it and they’re not upholding any laws but to sell drugs, extortion, embezzlement (one officer was stupid enough to livestream doling out cash from casing either a cashier’s check or whatever it was, fruits of a crime, over the internet); this city deserves to rid it of the garbage the two feds piled up and think they can dump on everyone else’s heads.One knowingly made false statements (lied right to the grand jury, United States Attorney and had the balls to go into the courtroom) for the other on a court document
pretty sad that we’ve all come to expect this.
Reminder to all: It’s not “systemic this” or “structural that” or “mental health” or “gun control”. It’s a choice. People choose to pull the trigger.
It is their fault, and no-one else’s. And they must be held to account.
Exactly right! And thank you.
Maybe one of our three police officers could post up at Cal Anderson? Just for fun?
I was awake when the gunfire started.
Same spot every time.
Speed bumps, bollards, sidewalk bumpouts, safe streets infrastructure… or I guess keep thinking that the police and/or cameras will do something about street racing and ppl driving recklessly (often without insurance, plates, etc. or in stolen cars).
Please Hudson or Hollingsworth!
