Seattle police say they're investigating a mass shooting that left five people injured in a parking lot
Officers responded to a shooting on Rainier Avenue South in south Seattle at about 9 p.m. Friday, Seattle Police Chief Adrian Diaz said during a news conference. The gunfire began in the parking lot of a property formerly known as King Donuts, the chief said. A community event was being held in the area at the time of the shooting, he said. “We have five victims – two are in critical condition, three appear to be stable,” said Diaz.
“We don’t have right now what caused it or what initially started the shooting.” Investigators believe there were at least two shooters, but no suspect description has been released. “We know that there’s dozens and dozens of rounds that were fired. Currently our gun violence reduction unit is actually investigating this,” said Diaz. Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell said this is “the tragedy of today with too many guns in the wrong places, in the wrong hands.
