Anyone know why there were 15 squad cars between Dearborn and the I90 interchange on Rainier last night? Apologies for the focus on crime once again, but I just moved into the neighborhood with my family and overall have been very reassured by the safety/friendliness of the neighborhood until last night…

Not sure, but wonder if it was related to the 15+ gunshots we heard around 11:30pm. We’re around 23rd and Union, so it’s a ways away, but maybe it something started near here and moved down that way.
Don’t know if this is related, but a swarm of squad cars and a canine unit converged on 26th Ave. S between King and Lane on Friday eve (around 7-8p) looking for what one officer said was “a man with a gun on the loose.” The canine went into an alley between two homes and sniffed something out. I didn’t see an actual arrest take place (since I was preoccupied with other matters) but police did recover a black jacket and a gun that they took into evidence.
