This is the fight that immediately preceded the shooting in the #CHAZ/#CHOP.

Witnesses said there was heavy drinking throughout the night, then a conflict escalated into gunfire.

The autonomous zone has failed. Time to reinstate law and order.

I can confirm the location as Pine Street between Molly Moon's ice cream shop and Cal Anderson Park.

I have also cross-checked this video with other livestreams from the same time and location.

Still working to confirm further details.

KOMO is now reporting that #CHOP leaders believe the shooting was due to "gang affiliations."

This would fatally undermine the left-wing effort to place the blame on "Trump" and "right-wing" agitators.

Five days ago, I predicted that #CHAZ could end in violence.

Every night, the zone has grown more tense, lawless, and disorganized.

Now, because of the political class' failure to ensure basic order, a young man is dead.
