SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle police are searching for a shooter after three people were seriously wounded early Saturday outside a South Lake Union club.

Police say “a hostile crowd” interfered with officers as they tried to help three men who had been shot. The victims would not tell police what had happened. All three were taken to Harborview Medical Center with life-threatening injuries.

Policy say a fight broke out inside the club. The subjects were kicked out of the club, and shots later were fired outside near the club.

Police did not know whether the shooter left in a vehicle or on foot. They found a handgun away from the scene.
