Stabbing investigation has shut down 4th Ave between Battery and Vine, @SeattlePD working to find the attacker. This happened at an apartment building, officers seen coming out of Centennial Tower and Court Apartments #KOMONews 
UPDATE: @SeattlePD reports two people have life-threatening injuries stemming from this, suspect barricaded in an apartment. Police also saying “some evacuations in the building” #KOMONews
UPDATE: The person wanted in these stabbing attacks is now in custody and she will be booked into the King County Jail. Both people stabbed taken to @harborviewmc (one already had surgery and their status has been upgraded to “serious) #KOMONews
BREAKING: Heading to this shooting scene now and will pass along info as it comes in #KOMONews
Lots of police and deputies at this shooting scene, including KCSO, @BurienPD and @AuburnWAPolice. This is all taking place along 8th St SE between D and F St #KOMONews
UPDATE: A 32-year-old man died in this shooting. A deputy was flagged down at the nearby Brown Bear Car Wash for a “domestic violence situation.” At some point after that, a deputy shot that man. No details as to what lead up to shooting/if that man had a weapon #KOMONews
A better look at that partial collapse. SFD reporting the two injured were construction workers. They’re in “stable condition” #KOMONews
.@seattledot says the pier had been shifting prior to today’s partial collapse. There were 5 people on the pier at the time, 12 total workers on-site. “Some of our means and methods for removing the pier will change” #KOMONews
.@SeattleFire Chief Scoggins says crews were quick to the scene and the workers that fell in were already out of the water. Officials say there was no damage to @SeattleAquarium or nearby Miner’s Landing #KOMONews
We’ve made it to Portland where the skyline is barely visible from the east side of the Willamette, the air quality here tonight is “hazardous.” With the fires burning in Oregon, upwards of 500,000 people have had to evacuate their homes. That’s 10% of the state’s pop #KOMONews
This just buzzed on @AdrianKOMONews’ phone. Looks like it came out about 40 minutes ago. Having lived and worked in Portland for 4+ years, it’s hard to imagine a town like Canby under a “BE SET” notice #KOMONews #LiveOnK2
BREAKING: @ClackCoSheriff enacts curfew beginning tonight in less than an hour. We’ve made it to Molalla, under a “GO NOW” evac warning, where people are dropping off food and water at the fire station #KOMONews #LiveOnK2
A look at opposing rallies in Shelton this afternoon. On one side, a “Back the Blue” crowd. On the other, Black Lives Matter. Plenty of police, open carry and chanting going on. BLM supporters have marched to the Mason Co Juvenile Detention Center #KOMONews
Police breakup a group of people getting chippy. Haven’t seen any violence so far. I did speak with one woman with the BLM group who’s from Shelton. She says she’s disappointed to see the “racism” in the place she grew up #KOMONews
Arguing at this parking lot, a group of pro-Trump supporters say if law enforcement wasn’t present, these protesters “wouldn’t be standing here.” Each side trying to drown out the chants of the other #KOMONews
NEW: The arrest warrant affidavit, as well as the search warrant for Michael Reinoehl has been unsealed. He was to be charged with Second Degree Murder and Unlawful Use of a Weapon. Documents also go over timeline of Aug. 29th shooting in Portland #KOMONews
Surveillance footage shows Reinoehl, in the white shirt, walking ahead of Danielson and then inside a parking garage. Detectives say the shooting happened shortly after this but wasn't caught on this camera #KOMONews
Per court docs, one spent .380 casing was found nearby as well as a can of 'Bear Attack Deterrent' near Danielson's body. A handgun was on Danielson's waistband, loaded with 19 rounds. Three additional and fully-loaded magazines were found in the pockets of his shorts #KOMONews
A look down 3rd Way SE from School St. SE. It’s hard to make out much of anything between how dark it is and the flashing lights. It appears as though the windshield of this truck has bullet holes in it #KOMONews
Speaking now, PIO with @ThurstonSheriff. “There was a confrontation,” shots were fired into vehicle. “We are not confirming the involved identity” of man killed, only saying he had an outstanding warrant for homicide #KOMONews
There were four members of that Apprehension Team that fired their weapons. “Not confirmed” if suspect “actually fired.” Were told this whole thing happened very quickly from the time he left the apartment to the shots being fired #KOMONews
We’re headed to Lacey now. While this happened in Thurston County, @PierceSheriff confirms the man came out of a house, got into a vehicle and that shots were fired during a traffic stop #KOMONews
MORE: @ThurstonSheriff says a U.S. Marshals Fugitive Apprehension Team went to do surveillance on an apt complex, looking for homicide suspect. He got into a vehicle, believed to be armed. Shots were fired at that vehicle, he got out and more shots were fired #KOMONews
At this point, @ThurstonSheriff will be the lead investigating agency. We’re told that no Thurston County agencies were involved with that Apprehension Team. No law enforcement officers reported injured. We’re just about to the scene #KOMONews
A new-look @SeattlePD East Precinct this afternoon. In addition to a wall of reinforced concrete barriers, this chain link fence was bolted down on top of it. Still a few @seattledot crews out here with some nearby roads closed #KOMONews
We’ve already heard a few people ask “how much is that costing me as a taxpayer?” That’s a good question and one we’re trying to get answered, along with who made the call to put it up. @SeattlePD says it isn’t in anticipation of any protests #KOMONews
Here’s the statement we just received from @MayorJenny’s office on all of this. “...too early to give a cost estimate...” #KOMONews
At Saint Michael Medical Center in Bremerton, @WADeptHealth reports a COVID-19 outbreak with more than 30 cases among patients and staff. Multiple units at the hospital have been affected. Screening is taking place at the entrance, some visitors hadn’t heard about it #KOMONews
We met Sidney outside as nearly all visitors are now restricted. His mother, who just turned 88 today, is here for a checkup. He worries that once she’s out, she’ll be quarantined at her assisted living center. “She needs to be around people.” More at 11 #KOMONews
A quick update to this story - as of yesterday, there are 54 confirmed cases of COVID-19 (34 staff, 20 patients) tied to this hospital outbreak. “We are marshaling every resource at our disposal to prevent additional illness and protect public health” says @KitsapHealth #KOMONews
Hundreds of people outside of City Hall with a message to defend @SeattlePD ahead of tomorrow’s City Council vote aimed to defund parts of the department. This rally is being put on by @SPOG1952. A group protesting this one is on the other side of 4th Ave #KOMONews
Across the street, a group pushing to defund @SeattlePD. The two sides exchanging some words with bull horns. A barricade and uniformed officers surround City Hall #KOMONews
Counter protesters just made their way in to 4th Ave, bike cops quickly moved in trying to push them back. They’re now both in the street #KOMONews
UPDATE: Gia Fuda found alive after 8 days. We’re heading to the area where she was located now #KOMONews
“It’s a miracle. God blessed this family,” says Jeff, a family friend. He tells us he doesn’t know much more about Gia’s condition other than she survived by eating berries. He and 50 others spent the entire last week searching for, covering hundreds of miles #KOMONews
.@kingcosoPIO says this was actually the 9th day Gia had been missing and is with her parents, in stable condition being taken to a hospital. At 2:45pm today, a deputy and SAR volunteers found a notebook of hers was found. Clothing was found at a nearby creek #KOMONews
The streets surrounding @TMobilePark look a little different for this year’s @Mariners home opener - and businesses are feeling the blow. With no fans allowed inside, this towel from Joe’s Grilled Gourmet Dogs sums it up, “I Wasn’t There” #KOMONews
Joe’s story is one of the better ones we’ve heard down here. He hasn’t missed an Opening Day in 15 years - he wasn’t going to let this year be his first. He put out the notice on Facebook that he’d be open. People have come from as far as Sequim and Portland for a dog #KOMONews
BREAKING: @BothellPolice investigating an officer-involved shooting along 20th Ave SE near an apartment complex called Salmon Run at Perry Creek. We know that someone was taken to the hospital. PIO is headed here, hoping to learn more then #KOMONews
Police confirm that no officers were injured and that there’s “no ongoing threat to the public.” SMART is on the way to take over the investigation and will have more details. It could be a few hours before those detectives get here #KOMONews
UPDATE: The man who was shot has died. Calls came in that he was slashing tires nearby. No word on what may have led to the shooting/if any confrontation played out. We could see a pair of scissors on the ground but detectives wouldn’t say if they were somehow involved #KOMONews
We’re standing by for a media briefing with @MayorJenny and @carmenbest following Saturday’s protest that SPD deemed a riot. These photos show some of what was confiscated, including homemade spike strips, and damage to the inside of a building #KOMONews
Starting off, @carmenbest says people threw Molotov cocktails into trailers at the youth jail construction site. She says people in a van then handed out baseball bats, fireworks and face masks near East Precinct, that van was left abandoned #KOMONews
“Not everyone in these protests are peaceful,” she says. A member of the bomb squad now going over some of those items that were confiscated. Among the fireworks and other things, bear spray was also recovered. He says officers have been sprayed with it #KOMONews
At the fencing around the East Precinct, the Latex Print Unit appears to be dusting for fingerprints. As far as the scene compared to this time yesterday - a stark contrast. It’s very quiet around here #KOMONews
Yes, this should’ve read “latent” not “latex.” Thank you, Twitter
On that note, it’s my Friday ✌🏻
As flash bangs erupt on the west side of Seattle Central College, more officers move towards Broadway on E Pine, moving dumpsters that had been put in the street #KOMONews
Yet again, officers pull away and make their way towards the East Precinct in this back and forth of sorts. A smaller (for now) crowd is following close behind shouting “go home!” #KOMONews
Hearing what sounds like more flash bangs as @SeattleFire crews are now staged near the East Precinct. @SeattlePD is now reporting 25 people have been arrested #KOMONews
UPDATE: Near the East Precinct, we’re hearing bangs and seeing smoke. Too far away to tell if they’re fireworks or flash bangs #KOMONews
More flash bangs being used. A glass bottle just came smashing down near us. No idea where it came from. Group now moving west on E Pine #KOMONews
A large group had been marching from Capitol Hill for the last couple of hours and now this. Police reporting this is the work of about a dozen people and that there have been "possible explosions," now "working to secure access" for fire crews #KOMONews
.@SeattleFire reports crews have knocked down 4 of 5 separate fires at this location #KOMONews
BREAKING: @SeattlePD now declaring this a riot #KOMONews
Ahead of planned protests this weekend, yet another major development #KOMONews
UPDATE: Judge Robart has granted the temporary restraining order. I've reached out to @MayorJenny's office as well @SeattlePD for comment #KOMONews
Early this morning, a statement from a spokesperson with @MayorJenny’s office in regards to the ruling #KOMONews
HAPPENING NOW: @SeattleFire also responding, tweeting crews are on scene "for a fire in a 2-story commercial building" now "under control." No injuries reported #KOMONews
Here’s a look at Bellevue/ E Olive. Can’t tell from here which business may have been hit. A @SeattlePD armored truck is here, too, as there are reports of more break-ins/fires in Capitol Hill #KOMONews
HAPPENING NOW: @realDonaldTrump on “Operation Legend” and sending federal agents to various U.S. cities. Says “100s” will be deployed to Chicago to “support besieged communities.” Kansas City and Albuquerque also named as cities to see agents #KOMONews
KC mayor Quinton Lucas and ABQ mayor Tim Keller have both pushed back on this. They’re just a handful of mayors denouncing the move by Trump #KOMONews
AG Barr says 200 federal agents will go to KC, another 35 to ABQ. “Violent crime is ultimately a problem that will be solved by state and local leadership in these cities” #KOMONews
HAPPENING NOW: As a few hundred protesters march north on 3rd Ave through the Pike/Pine corridor, a convoy of @SeattlePD cruisers follow behind. This is our view from 4th Ave #KOMONews
So this is what we encountered...on a public sidewalk. Nothing like trying to do your job and having this happen #KOMONews
At 3/Pine, a large window has been smashed at Victrola Coffee Roasters. Other windows are spray painted and we’re hearing reports of more damage further south on Pine #KOMONews
BREAKING: A deadly fire in the Ravenna neighborhood has been extinguished. Another person that was inside is being taken to the hospital #KOMONews
A few more photos from this fire. With no door knob on the front door, fire fighters entered through a second story window. At one point, some were trapped and a mayday call was put out. One fire fighter did suffer minor injuries. We’ll have the latest coming up at 4 #KOMONews
Here’s a photo a neighbor shared with me- the entire front of the home and the south side of it were engulfed in flames. It sounds like this fire tore through the home in hurry #KOMONews
