SEATTLE — Five people were wounded in a shooting at a Seattle parking lot during which the police chief said “dozens and dozens of rounds” were fired. There were no immediate arrests, and a police investigation was ongoing.
Three people — all in their 20s — remained hospitalized Saturday, though one of them was expected to be discharged later in the day, according to Harborview Medical Center spokesperson Susan Gregg. A fourth person was treated and released.
A fifth person was treated at the scene, Seattle Police Chief Adrian Diaz said.
The Seattle Police Department responded to reports of a shooting around 9 p.m. Friday. It took place in an area where police said a community outreach event was being held.
“We know that there’s dozens and dozens of rounds that were fired,” said Diaz, who noted police were not sure of a possible motive.
