UPDATE: SPD, federal officers at apartment building on Fauntleroy

1:04 PM: Thanks for the tips. SWAT officers are reported to be after someone in a Fauntleroy Way building just south of Alaska. We are working on details.

1:39 PM: According to comments, the officers are inside the Maris Apartments (4722 Fauntleroy Way SW), which was the target of gunfire and rock-throwing last week. We have a question out to SPD about whether this is warrant- or incident-related.

2:14 PM: SPD replied, “SPD is assisting US Marshals.” We’ve updated the headline. We’ll inquire with that agency next.

Alley behind Maris / pet food shop, etc blocked off at both ends so cars trapped in garage, Les Schwab alley onto Fauntleroy blocked, lots of marked and unmarked police vehicles on Fauntleroy. Pet food shop kindly letting folks in and locking the doors.

About 20 officers with riot gear/shields/battering rams are on 2nd floor of Maris apartments currently.

Thank you for the update! I live in the smaller Maris building and was told to stay put for now.

    I was notified about an hour ago as I was leaving for lunch. I requested a follow-up, and was just notified that the situation is cleared up now; there was an arrest without incident.
