7 PM: SPD and SFD are headed to a possible shooting reported in The Junction. The report came from a caller at the Junction 47 building at California/Alaska but they’re trying to confirm where the possible victim is. Updates to come.
7:03 PM: Police are still checking but so far there’s NO confirmation of any shooting, with or without a victim.
7:08 PM: Police have concluded that it was a false report by a person in crisis. The SFD response has been canceled.
I live at J47 and a transient man snuck in the building while movers had the door propped open and called 911 through the elevator and was asked to leave by tenants. Probably a false alarm.
That was pretty much the scenario. He apparently claimed his girlfriend had been shot but there was no evidence of a woman, shot or not, with him or in the vicinity. Our crew (who was there fast because they were at Easy Street for the show) reports it appears the person was going to be taken to Harborview to be evaluated.
That explains every Police officer in West Seattle flying North up 35th…Sorry to hear about a person in crisis, but GLAD that there was no one shot
Sorry, comment time is over.
