There were no reported injuries early Saturday morning on Broadway Avenue after the Seattle Police Department officers heard several shots fired shortly after bar closing.
Just before 2:15 a.m., Nightlife Emphasis officers working near Broadway and East Pine heard six to seven shots fired just to the north of them. As the officers rushed to investigate, they located a male fleeing the scene.
The man told officers that an unknown male shot at him and his friend for unknown reasons, but police said the victim then became uncooperative with the officers. Officers located six shell casings in the parking lot and observed a broken window to a nearby apartment complex. Officers checked on the resident and determined that they were unharmed. Officers did not locate any injured people.
Officers collected the evidence. The investigation is ongoing.
