Just came northbound on Delridge and it looked like they were shutting down Delridge….

Hi. From what I could tell, I saw a young (late teens, early 20’s) black gentleman with a hand full of blood. It sounds like he might have been have shot. There were several friend or family members with him. He was up and walking around. I hope he’s okay.

Now I can see two fire engines and some cop cars blocking off the area between the Cloverdale and Thistle streets.

WOW… you WSB people move quick! lol I can see you taking pictures.

Thanks, Sarah. We have two people there by now – Christopher was there even as Patrick cleared out of the 34th District Democrats meeting we both were covering (I’m still here) – awaiting more formal information from the police for an update – the med/fire call is already closed which suggests not life-threatening wounds, as Christopher also had said he was hearing – TR
