Seattle police are investigating multiple weekend shootings that left two people dead, at least two people wounded and sent officers seeking suspects in neighborhoods across the city.
This continues the 2021 trend of increased gunfire, including five shootings earlier in the week. In one of these, police say two teenagers shot at each other outside a Southeast Seattle school. There were 420 cases of gunfire in Seattle last year, and 370 so far in 2021, far higher than normal, interim police Chief Adrian Diaz said Saturday.
Two people died Saturday in the Lake City neighborhood, where dispatchers received a 911 call a few minutes before 4 p.m., in the 3000 block of Northeast 140th. Police found the two people dead of apparent gunshot wounds inside an apartment. A spokesperson said the fired shots endangered people in nearby units.
