Bite of Seattle Shooting Leaves Three Dead
A mass shooting at the Bite of Seattle festival near the Space Needle left three people dead and several others injured, including a toddler. Police said two suspects may have been involved, with one in custody described as a young person and a second suspect at large, and investigators believe two individuals were shooting at each other when officers arrived. Eyewitness accounts and video from the scene described chaos as people hid, ran, and sheltered themselves from the gunfire. Authorities reported that multiple victims were treated on-site or transported to hospital, and at least seven people were shot in total. Some reports noted the violence occurred as vendors and attendees heard shots and witnessed a rapid collapse of the festival atmosphere, with law enforcement deploying additional resources and continuing the search for the second suspect. The investigation is ongoing, with officials underscoring the need for public safety and offering prayers for the victims and their families.
