On June 20, 2020 at approximately 2:19 a.m., 9-1-1 received reports of a shooting at 10th Ave and E. Pine St. SPD officers responded to the scene and SFD dispatch was notified.
Due to SFD’s existing policy of staging and requesting law enforcement to first secure the scene before entering for scenes of violence, fire units began staging near the perimeter at 2:23 a.m. This is a standard procedure for any scene of violence and is also currently in place for any fire and medical emergency inside the area deemed the CHOP due to firefighter safety.
Between 2:26 and 2:28 a.m. SPD officers staged at 12th Ave and Cherry St. and initially entered the scene but were unable to secure the location for SFD medics. Simultaneously, volunteer medics provided medical assistance to the first gunshot victim. The first victim was transported via a private vehicle and arrived at 2:42 a.m. at Harborview Medical Center. The first victim was pronounced deceased at Harborview Medical Center at 2:53 a.m.
There were multiple 9-1-1 calls, and at approximately 2:51 a.m., reports surfaced of a second gunshot victim nearby at 11th and Pike. SPD officers and SFD medics were already on the scene staging due to the previous call and needed SPD presence to enter the scene. Simultaneously, the second victim was transported to Harborview Medical Center in a private vehicle and arrived with a major gunshot wound at 3:06 a.m. The victim is in critical condition.
Anyone with information about this shooting, or who may have video, is asked to contact the Seattle Police Department’s Violent Crime tip line at (206) 233-5000. You can read the SPD blotter post here.
