Officer shot at 29th & Yesler

If you are aware of any video recordings from last night, along Yesler west of 29th especially, but also along MLK, Jr. Blvd, from around 9:30 - 10:30 pm, you should call 911 and tell them you possibly have such a video recording.

I would like to organize people from the community who have outdoor video cameras on their property, with the live feed available on the Internet for the community. If you are interested, email heathhunnicutt aaaaat hotmail dot com.

See the smiling face of the guy on the right? ---->>> There is part of the reason why gangs get away with murder. Really.

I'm disturbed to hear the videographer badgering an officer (standing guard at the perimeter) who has no authority to make statements which could tip the killer to SPD's progress. His offhand statements could also cause decidedly terrified neighbors to behave rashly based on partial or misinterpreted information. The officer did his job well by politely not complying with what sounded like annoyed demands for information from the person filming him.
