Police say two rolling shootouts in south Seattle may be related.

Officers first responded to reports of shots fired Sunday evening between a blue car and a tan vehicle driving in the 5300 block of 32 Avenue South.

Witnesses report the blue car, whose rear window was shot out in the gunfire, appeared to be a Honda, and the tan car could have been an Acura or Honda Accord.

Police conducted a public safety search of vehicles and houses nearby, but found no one was injured.

Police say this incident may be related to a second incident that occurred later in the day where shots were fired between a black Mercedes and a white truck in the 4800 block of S. Holden St.

No injuries were reported in either incident. Detectives don’t believe the shootings were random. The gang unit is investigating.
