broadway / john shooting

A few blocks away from my apartment, the remains of a crime scene in front of Twice Sold Tales. It turns out that a police shooting took place earlier in the evening. Christopher Frizzelle, who lives across the street, has the gory details over at the Stranger’s weblog:

According to someone in my building, the shots rang out sometime after 8 o’clock–meaning, about two hours ago–and yet the guy is still there on the ground. According to this source, who is a 31-year-old musician who is currently staying with a friend of his in my building, no ambulance ever arrived, but according to someone else an ambulance and firetrucks arrived right after the shooting and then left. [slog]

The entry continues with an eyewitness account (from someone else in the building) describing the police fatally shooting a gun-weilding man near the bus stop.

update: now with more camphone pictures [slog]; the Seattle Times has also filed a short report [#].
