A 29-year-old man was transported to Harborview with life-threatening injuries after he was shot in the chest in the Othello neighborhood earlier this afternoon.

From the Rainier Valley Post:

A 29-year old man was working on his car this afternoon behind Honest Jack’s Discount Auto Parts store at Rainier Avenue South and South Othello Street when witnesses say another man walked down an adjacent street and fired three to four rounds – striking him at least once in the chest.

It does not appear that police have made any arrests.

  1. Is it just me or are we on pace to end 2009 in the Greater Puget Sound area with a record number of gun-related assaults and murders? Sure looks that way.

    I certainly don’t think 2nd Amendment rights should be compromised, but damn – too many are packing that shouldn’t.

  2. Didn’t Erica steal a post from that blog during the snowstorm? She totally got busted for it, too.
