WEST SEATTLE CRIME WATCH: Gunfire investigation

For a second consecutive night, police are investigating gunfire in Highland Park. They responded to a call from someone who reported seeing someone fire a gun out a car window in the 8100 block of 8th SW around 8:23 pm. The caller then said they found at least one shell casing while police were on the way. No injuries are reported; the only description so far is that the person fired toward a building from the passenger side of an “early model sedan” that was last seen heading west on SW Elmgrove. This is about half a mile south of where last night’s gunfire happened.

    I just heard(9:50pm) more gunfire in that direction. Lots of sirens now.

      That was a medical call in High Point, unrelated.
