From downtown Seattle on the street Barb calls “Mugme Street” via the Seattle Police:
Two men were wounded by gunfire Wednesday evening in downtown Seattle.
Officers on foot patrol near Westlake Center heard gunfire just after 8 p.m. Wednesday and ran toward the sounds of the shots. Police saw a large group of people running from 3rd and Pine St, where officers found two men with gunshot wounds.
I don’t even like being there during the daytime.
I’m no fan of the war on some drugs but what I see around 3rd & Pike suggests that perhaps it’s time to repeal Initiative #75 if we want to change behavior down there. I also need to remember to catch buses elsewhere when I’m downtown.
