HAPPENING NOW: @carmenbest speaks about early morning shooting inside #CHOP, says a vehicle is involved and “riddled with bullets” and that a teen remains in critical condition. Asking people to leave the zone #KOMONews
“Absolutely we want people to leave the area,” Best says. “We have had so many issues and problems.” She says she can’t comment on what will happen next, says “enough is enough.” “I would question why we allow this to happen.” Being asked where @MayorJenny is #KOMONews
No one is in custody with this latest shooting. When asked if @SeattlePD will work with @seattledot about moving barricades, she doesn’t give much of an answer. “This is not an acceptable situation.” Protesters follow her after she wraps up speaking with reporters #KOMONews
I missed the very beginning of the press conference, @carmenbest started by saying when investigators arrived, they found a white Jeep Cherokee “riddled with bullet holes” on 12th between E Pine and E Pike. Two men were inside that Jeep and both had been shot #KOMONews
To clarify, a @SeattlePD blotter post reads that a 14-year-old boy is the second victim in this shooting, so not a “man.” He remains in critical condition #KOMONews
