Breaking: A shooting occurred at the main border checkpoint/entrance to the “CHAZ” on 10th and East Pine. Seattle Police are investigating.
Update: One person was killed and two injured in the shooting that occurred early this morning at Seattle's "CHAZ." The shooting did not involve police though they are now investigating. CHAZ has a strict "do not cooperate" policy with police. #CapitolHillAutonomousZone
Exclusive: My sourcing tells me that Seattle Police have been hampered from carrying out a homicide investigation because they were not allowed to enter CHAZ. When police went to Harborview Medical Center, where a victim was transported, they were met by CHAZ's armed people.

Seattle @MayorJenny has declared the #CHAZ a "free speech zone."

But Antifa-affiliated activists have harassed and forcibly removed right-leaning journalists from the territory.

Newsflash: it's not free speech if only one view is permitted.
The mayor has said it might be a "summer of love" in the #CapitolHillAutonomousZone.

But SPD Chief says calls for service have tripled, with "rapes, robberies, and all sorts of violent acts that have been occurring in the area that we’re not able to get to."

Crime ≠ Love
As @BlueBoxDave has reported, Occupy Wall Street ultimately crumbled when reports of widespread sexual assault broke into the news.

The same dynamic is possible in the #CHAZ—especially because the territory is so much larger, with many more enclosed spaces.
