Any word on why there are a couple of helicopters circling the neighborhood?
EDITOR’S UPDATE: Looks like the choppers were out to cover a fatal motorcycle crash at the I-5/I-90 interchange this morning. It appears a person riding a motorcycle ran into a barrier and fell from a ramp onto I-5 around 4 a.m.
Timothy Richard Wettack, 23, was pronounced dead at the hospital, KIRO reports.
Looks like there was a wreck on I-5 at Yesler around 4am, but other than that it doesn’t seem 911 related. Could always be observing freeway traffic. I’ll keep my eyes peeled and let you know if I find something else.
Maybe the fatal motorcycle crash where the rider dropped 100 feet at I-5/I-90.

You’re right. That must have been it. Looks like KIRO had the chopper out. Very sad.
Wow, that’s terrible.
