Police are investigating shots fired at the Longfellow Creek Apartments at Delridge and Juneau. Nobody hit but some damage done. Updates later. 1:30 PM UPDATE: Thanks to the commenters who pointed out that this is believed to be connected to a shooting in the Central District – we were downtown at the courthouse for the Dillard/Coxwell verdict and away from our usual immersion in the rest of the mediasphere.
I live near that complex I heard about 6 shots but figured it was a nail gun due to all the construction going on in the area.
Here is a little more info I forgot to post… According to one of the residents it began when a male began arguing with his girlfriend he left the apartment went up near the side gate and fired into apartment building.
Details of possible retaliatory shootings:

Looks like this shooting in West Seattle is connected to the Central District shooting.
