6 injured in 3 overnight shootings in Seattle, police say

Six people, including four teenagers, were injured in three shootings in separate locations in Sodo and South Seattle on Sunday night into Monday morning, the Seattle Police Department said on X.

No one has been arrested for any of the shootings, and the conditions of the people who were shot are unknown.

A 39-year-old man was injured on a King County Metro bus in the 500 block of South Lander Street in Sodo around 10:15 p.m. Sunday, police said.

Officers responded to 911 calls about shots fired on a bus, police said. When they arrived, officers found the 39-year-old sitting at the back of the bus with three gunshots to his back.

Witnesses said a 6-foot-tall man wearing glasses, a white shirt and black jeans thought someone on the bus had stolen something from him. After he got off the bus, witnesses said, he shot at the back of the bus, striking the 39-year-old.

The man was taken to Harborview Medical Center.

Four teenagers were injured in a second shooting in the 6000 block of Swift Avenue South in Beacon Hill around 1:15 a.m. Monday, police said.

The shooting took place at a party inside a home, police said. Officers responded to 911 calls about the injuries and found three people inside the home injured by the gunfire, while a fourth teenager had been taken to a nearby hospital by friends.

Two of the teenagers were 18 and the others were 16 and 17. They are being treated for their injuries, police said.

And a 34-year-old man was injured in a third shooting, in the 2400 block of South Walker Street around 3:15 a.m. Monday, police said.

Officers responding to the shooting found the 34-year-old with gunshots to both shoulders, his abdomen and lower back.

The man and his partner had entered a tent near South Walker Street and 24th Avenue South before an altercation happened inside with an unknown person, police said. That's when the shooting occurred, and the person suspected of the shooting ran off.

No descriptions for the people suspected in the second and third shootings were available.
